Pep Guardiola grabs his goalkeeper by the scruff following two goals slip against Brentford

Angry Pep Guardiola scolded his goalkeeper after Tuesday night's draw between Manchester City and Brentford.

Man City further slipped in the Premier League title race as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Brentford.

The Premier League champions took a two-goal lead early in the second half but threw away the lead in the last 10 minutes of the game.

The loss occurred just hours after rumours circulated that he and his wife, teenage sweetheart Cristina Serra, had broken up.

According to the Sun, Stefan Ortega was confronted by the Spanish manager after the final whistle.

The former Barcelona manager and the German goalie had a heated exchange during which he shouted right in front of his player.

Guardiola was also seen giving the City keeper a harsh hug while vocally yelling at him in what seemed to be some tough love.

Meanwhile, the former Bayern Munich manager has been dealing with a difficult season in which the Citizens have fallen to sixth position in the Premier League standings.

His team's poor run of form has seen them go 12 points behind league leaders Liverpool on the Premier League table.
