Pep Guardiola‘s men went into the break with a one goal advantage, thanks to a precise header into the top corner by Josko Gvardiol.
However, after the interval, the visitors grew into the game and won a penalty with three minutes of normal time left to play, as Matheus Nunes brought down Amad Diallo after a loose pass back to Ederson.
Bruno Fernandes finished from the spot, before Diallo struck the winner with the clock ticking into stoppage time, meaning Pep Guardiola‘s men have just one win in 11 matches across all competitions.
Foden, who returned to the starting team after missing out recently with bronchitis, has urged everyone associated with City to come together in an attempt to turn around our form.
“Massively [disappointed] - the game was in our hands,” he declared. “1-0 up we were controlling the game. We had a lot of possession. It seems to be the story at the moment. I don’t know what happens but we switch off and they score two goals. It keeps happening at the moment.
“We had control of the game 1-0 up. You can concede at 1-1 but you can’t concede straight after, that’s unacceptable. It’s just one of those, it’s the way it is.
“We have to stick together now, rebuild and go again. We’ve not been used to losing this amount of games in a short period. But sometimes you have to experience this in life, you can’t always win.
“When things go wrong they then seem to go worse. We have to stick together and regroup.”
The defeat leaves City in fifth place in the Premier League table, one point behind Nottingham Forest in fourth, and nine points behind league-leaders Liverpool, who also have a game in hand.

Foden believes that the team need to clear their minds and start with a fresh mentality, starting with next weekend’s trip to Villa Park.
“At the start when you lose a couple of games, then no [not a mentality problem], but when it happens a lot it feels like a mental thing.
“We need to get out of that and get back to winning ways and pick ourselves back up.”
