Phil Foden: Fatigue Didn't Hinder Our Victory

Phil Foden, the star of Manchester City, expressed his frustration after the team's 2-2 draw against Brentford in the 21st week of the Premier League. Foden, who scored both of City's goals in the match, stated, "In the last 20 minutes, fatigue was evident in every player's legs, and they took advantage of that." He added, "This was one of the toughest challenges against a good team like Brentford. I was completely satisfied with my performance while we were leading by a goal, but after that, we appeared a bit disappointing."

Foden emphasized the importance of learning from such matches, noting, "There are many lessons to be learned from this game, and unfortunately, our winning streak was easily halted." He continued, "We definitely chose to be where we are in the table now. Although our performance is much better than the points we've earned, I think we still have steps to take to improve. I don't make excuses because I feel we gave our best effort in this match."

Regarding his collaboration with Kevin De Bruyne, Foden remarked, "Our connection on the field is very good, and he provided me with a beautiful assist. We need to continue this trend."
