‘I think I crossed the line. It was not a good image’

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, 51, bowed his head. He formally apologized to Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola and referee Anthony Tyler for his over-the-top behavior.

It doesn’t reflect well on myself or on football.” Pochettino was so immersed in the intensity of the game that he lost his temper in the heat of the moment, but he quickly reflected on his actions and maintained a minimum of class.
