Twitter reacts as Manchester City fail to win against Lyon for the second consecutive game

Manchester City is probably the best club among the Premier League clubs. They are at the top the league and they are still unbeaten in the League.

Despite being qualified for the knockout rounds in Champions League, City still has a lot to improve on. Premier League giants performances have not been up to their standards two times they faced Lyon.

City were defeated by Lyon at home with the scoreline 2-1. City fans would have expected the club to take revenge for their home defeat when they travel to Lyon. They didn't win against Lyon but succeeded in salvaging a 2-2 draw at Lyon.

Lyon twice took the lead in the second half but were not able to maintain it. The French side wasted many clear-cut chances before Maxwel Cornet fired an astounding shot from a tight angle to give them an early second-half lead.

City defender Aymeric Laporte quickly levelled the scores through the header. Cornet fired in again to put Lyon on top of the group. Sergio Aguero, however, flicked the header two minutes after Lyon's second goal to ensure City remain favourites to top the group.

Speaking after the draw against Lyon, Pep Guardiola said:

Today the Champions League showed me again that it's another different competition and especially for one reason. The players are better.

Guardiola also explained how people wrongly believe that Ligue 1 is the farmer's league:

People say in France it's just PSG. But they don't know how tough it is in France. The league is so complicated, so good, so that's why I give a lot of credit for the result and the performance today,

City are yet to face Premier League counterparts, Liverpool and Chelsea who are playing amazingly this season. If City continues to play as they did against Lyon, there are chances that the club may slip further in the League.

Manchester City have qualified for the knockout rounds and Guardiola knows it's not going to be easy to win the coveted Champions League

Seeing lots of shitty tweets about Manchester City's draw last night. LOL, we top the group still even with our semi shitty squad last night. Plot-twist: Lyon loses to shakhtar and they fuck off to the Europa League.

A team like Lyon have out played city, Bayern won 5-1 but BT sport are still tweeting about Jose Mourinhos reaction to a 90th minute goal rather than the goal itself that qualified Manchester United for the knockout stages. Get a grip lads

Quite bizarre that a team that has taken 4 #ChampionsLeague points and scored 4 goals against @ManCity this season could yet be eclipsed by a team that City have beaten twice by an aggregate score of 9-0! Shakhtar could still snatch second place from Lyon in Group F. pic.twitter.com/khLLLVwjKm
