Slot Blames Mid-Game Drop in 'Fighting Spirit' After City Loss

Slot said he didn’t think the whole game lacked fighting spirit, but admitted a 10‑minute period after the break was where standards dropped. He pointed out how quickly the team unraveled after conceding and how transitional moments were poorly defended.

Slot also noted teammates like Virgil van Dijk acknowledged responsibility, and he warned that mentality, duels and intensity must improve before the upcoming match against PSG.
