Extraordinary stat emerges with Man City worse than FIFA's lowest ranked nation

Pep Guardiola's side continue to be stuck in a major rut after losing 2-0 to Juventus on Wednesday night in the Champions League.

As well as leaving their hopes of reaching the next round in jeopardy, it's a result that seen their record over ten games hit a new low.

In the last ten fixtures, Man City have won just once - the 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League last week.

By comparison, even FIFA's lowest-ranked international team has won more in the same time frame.

That's because San Marino claimed two victories over Liechtenstein in their UEFA Nations League campaign, meaning that they have won one more game in their last ten than City have managed.

What's worse for the Premier League champions, in their last ten games they've also lost an incredible seven.

They've also conceded goals in nine of those matches, but it gets even worse.

City have now conceded 21 goals since the beginning of November in all competitions.

That means that, incredibly, they've conceded more goals than any side in Europe's top five leagues.

The 2-0 defeat to Juventus means that City's hopes of progressing are hanging by a thread.

Two wins, two draws and two defeats in their six Champions League league phase fixtures means that the 2023 Champions League winners have slumped down to 22nd in Europe's 36-team table.

They are just one point and three places away from dropping out of the play-offs and being eliminated from the competition.

City now have two games to save their Champions League campaign.

Those matches will be played after Christmas with fixtures against Paris Saint-Germain on January 22 before hosting Club Brugge the following week.

The Citizens' horror form has left Guardiola admitting he is questioning himself.

Speaking after the defeat in Turin, he said: "Of course I question myself, but I'm stable in good moments and bad moments.

"I try to find a way to do it. I'm incredibly honest. If we play good [I say] we played good and today I thought we played good.

"Our game will save us. We can do it. We conceded few chances compared to the Nottingham Forest game that we won. We're making the right tempo.

"We missed the last pass, did not arrive in the six-yard box [at the right time] or have the composure at the right moment.

"But I love my team. This is life, it happens. Sometimes you have a bad period but I'm going to insist until we're there."
