J. Guardiola: we do not receive respect from referees © PA

Before Saturday's match between "Man City" and "Newcastle United," the manager of the "City" team, Josep Guardiola, criticized the referees of the Premier League.

According to the Catalan, his coached team is penalized too harshly and does not receive the desired respect.

"We are a team that spends the least amount of time playing matches throughout my entire career. However, when we go to play against 'Arsenal,' we already receive a yellow card after 36 minutes."

It depends on the referee, but I am convinced that goalkeeper Ederson will again be "awarded" a yellow card. How many millions of matches have teams that come to play in our arena played and how much time have their goalkeepers wasted?

"And then nothing happens, but as soon as we try to be active, we immediately receive a card. That's why I don't want to comment further on the referees' work because I don't care. They can do whatever they want," J. Guardiola assured.
