'We couldn't handle Bournemouth' - how Man City's unbeaten run ended

All good things must come to an end.

Manchester City's 32-game unbeaten Premier League is over after a lacklustre performance led to a 2-1 loss at in-form Bournemouth.

That incredible run was a club record without tasting defeat.

Saturday's loss also means City have dropped to second in the Premier League, trailing leaders Liverpool by two points.

"They [Bournemouth] were another pace today and we could not handle it," Guardiola said.

"We knew we couldn't match the intensity. We have talked about it. It was an open game.

"We had chances at the end but I congratulate Bournemouth for the victory.
