Jeglertz satisfied with City point in tough Man Utd test

Andrée Jeglertz praised Manchester City’s grit and determination after their 1-1 draw with Manchester United.

The City boss felt his side handled the emotion of the contest well and was satisfied with the way they stuck to their game plan.

“It’s always difficult. There is a lot of emotions from the opponent and from us also,” Jeglertz said.

“I think on the field we managed it in a good way and I always think there is something with people when we support our own team. That is the most important thing to do.

“But we battled well. There was a lot of emotions on the pitch and we dealt with it in a good way and we played how we wanted.”

Jeglertz also insisted a point away from home was not a bad result.

“It was a tough game, a lot of teams will be challenged here and one point away is not a disaster,” he said.

“No one will go unbeaten in this league.

“And that is why it was important for us to, as soon as possible, take the learnings with us and move on.”
