The City manager said: “I did it against Southampton. There are a lot of emotions in those moments.“I know when I did it I was not happy to have done that, so I can understand (Everton manager) Marco Silva, (then Southampton boss Mauricio) Pellegrino when it happens.“But sometimes it’s what it is, it’s an emotional game. Last minute, everything happens in your mind, heart and body and sometimes you do that. I talk for my side but of course you have to be respectful for the other ones.” Guardiola expects such incidents to be viewed differently by fans of the winning and losing sides.He said: “When you lose you are impolite, you are a bad guy, and when you win everything is acceptable.“We live in a world where everyone judges the winners and we make a lot of big compliments just because we win.”
