City are now five points behind leaders Arsenal with a game in hand after our draw on our first trip to the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
We could have slipped further behind, but battled back from being 3-1 down with Jeremy Doku scoring a superb 97th minute equaliser.
“It’s better to have a point than no point. It would be better to win the game than have the point,” Guardiola said after the match.
“Many things happened. We know the difficulty of the opponent, they are incredibly aggressive.
“We were there in the first half and exceptional, then in the second half they make a step up. We played with good process but maybe not the intention we had in the first half.
“We gave away the first goal then from the corner they are so good, David Moyes always is with set-pieces. It was open to transition and we had chances.
“We had momentum and two goals, the third was outstanding. We take a point.
“It was in our hands before this game but now it’s not. Prepare for Brentford. We will continue and see what happens.”
Doku’s late equaliser came after he fired us into the lead just before the break with another impressive strike.
After a strong first half, Guardiola felt that his side lost momentum but praised the never-say-die attitude of the players.
“When you score and have the momentum, you have to win the game given the situation and how many games we have left,” he added.
“With the long balls they are better, they win free-kicks and throw-ins.
“You make some decisions a little rushed which is normal because of the emotions but at the same time without that emotion you cannot come back. If you give up, you cannot do what we have done.”
