Pep Guardiola admitted “we drank all the alcohol in Manchester” during his side’s title celebrations.
The Manchester City boss allowed his stars to let their hair down after they sealed the Premier League title last weekend.
Players enjoyed an epic night of partying, being joined by their partners at an incredible title bash.
Just two days on they had to play Brighton on the South Coast, with the Seagulls hell-bent on sealing a place in the Europa League.Following the 1-1 draw, Guardiola heaped praise on his side.
The 52-year-old said: “Exceptional game, congratulations to Brighton for deserved qualification for the Europa League officially and the game we played.“I think we drunk all the alcohol in Manchester and 40 hours later we behaved and we showed the reason we are the champions.
“Against that team, doing what they have done with or without the ball, I didn’t see one drop of water in our intensity or our idea.
“That’s why show me again what we have done this season because we have won it on the pitch nobody gave us absolutely anything.”
Erling Haaland and girlfriend Isabel wore matching pyjamas to the bash.
