Twitter reacts to Pep Guardiola blaming the ball used for Carabao cup last night

Manchester City edged past Wolves in a closely contested affair which saw The Citizens winning the game on penalties. City won the penalty shootout 3-1 thanks to Claudio Bravo's heroics after both teams failed to score in normal time. In the post-match interview, Guardiola had this to say,&quot;It is not acceptable, the ball was unacceptable for a high-level competition. It is too light, it moves all over the place, it is not a good ball. It is impossible to score with a ball like that and I can say that because we won, I’m not making excuses. I’m sorry Carabao Cup is not a serious ball for a serious competition. It’s marketing, money, OK but it’s not acceptable but it has no weight, nothing.”Here's how Twitter reacted to this statement :First, we have the official statement from EFL regarding this issue :EFL statement on the Mitre ball used in games.

Get a grip, Pep.— Mike Anstead (@mike_anstead) October 25, 2017The only logical reasoning behind Pep's hatred of the Mitre ball is that he took one to the inside of his thigh on a cold January morning. pic.twitter.com/A8RlVaNNkx— Coral (@Coral) October 25, 2017If anyone's got an issue with the player ratings today, in true Pep style I'm gonna blame the laptop keys.— Tim Spiers (@tim_spiers_Star) October 25, 2017“The ball was unacceptable for a high-level competition.&quot;Pep talking about the match ball used last night... remind you of anyone? ? pic.twitter.com/uRvfMO9yB6— ODDSbible (@ODDSbible) October 25, 2017
