Guardiola relishes Man City’s steely show at Huddersfield

Pep Guardiola says Manchester City’s 2-1 win at Huddersfield gave him more satisfaction than other more high-profile victories because of the way they fought back in adversity.

City secured an 11th successive league win, equalling a club record, and an 18th straight victory in all competitions after coming from a goal down at the John Smith’s Stadium on Sunday.
Nicolas Otamendi’s own goal gave Huddersfield a half-time lead, but Sergio Aguero equalised with a penalty before Raheem Sterling’s lucky finish, for his 12th goal of the season, won the match in the closing minutes.
City are eight points clear at the top of the Premier League and have enjoyed some big victories this season, notably beating Stoke 7-2, Watford 6-0 and both Liverpool and Crystal Palace 5-0.
Guardiola, though, ranked the win at Huddersfield above all of those when asked, arguing that the test they faced in west Yorkshire will benefit them much more than bigger victories have done.
