Manchester City news: Pep Guardiola vows to learn from shoot-out loss to Wolves in Asia Trophy final

Pep Guardiola vowed to practice penalties after spot-kicks proved an unexpected weakness in Manchester City's armoury at the Premier League Asia Trophy.

Raheem Sterling blazed over from 12 yards in normal time and City players then saw three penalties saved as they were beaten by Wolves in a shoot-out in Shanghai.

Ilkay Gundogan, David Silva and Lukas Nmecha all failed to beat Rui Patricio from the spot as Wolves prevailed 3-2 to claim the trophy in a poor-quality shoot-out at the Hongkou Stadium.

Pep Guardiola admitted he was surprised his Manchester City team lost to Wolves on penalties

After sweeping almost all before them to win a domestic treble last season, it seems the Premier League champions have at least one area to brush up on.
