Manchester City were disappointed to leave Old Trafford with a draw having made it "impossible" for themselves to win, according to Rodri. Gabriel Jesus, Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling all had opportunities to score that they failed to take. City's manager expressed satisfaction at the "good point" in his press conference after the game, citing the resoluteness of a defence that has now kept a club record of six clean sheets in all competitions and the opportunities that they created further up the pitch. “There were a lot of tactical battles on the pitch. There weren't many chances to score, but I think we got two clear chances. I think we created a little bit more than them," said Rodri. "In these big matches, you aren't going to have many opportunities to score, so when you have them, you need to convert them. If you don't score them, it's impossible to win. “Of course, we are disappointed. We wanted to win. We have great players up front, they usually score a lot of goals. Sometimes it happens that you don't score the goals, sometimes you need a bit of luck as well. We need to keep working, keep pushing, keep fighting. We are still in the early stages of the Premier League season, but we need to work on being more clinical in the box.”
