'We've got this badge for a reason!' - How Pep Guardiola's half-time team talk inspired Man City to comeback win over Everton

Phil Foden has revealed how the coach urged his players to remind themselves that they were world champions during his half-time team talk after City had fallen a goal down at Everton. City <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-fluminense/bltd73aa8b0a90f6597" target="_blank">thrashed Fluminense 4-0 in last week's Club World Cup fina</a>l but were given a rude awakening by the Toffees before eventually showing their class and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/manchester-city-player-ratings-vs-everton-phil-foden-julian-alvarez/blt7edc62371b09b5df" target="_blank">cruising to a 3-1 win</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"The manager was big on it at half-time to keep believing, we haven't got this badge for no reason so we have to believe in ourselves because we're a top team," Foden told Amazon Prime. "I thought we played really well in the first half and it seems to have been the same story as previous games."

WHAT FODEN SAID

City overcame Jack Harrison's goal against the run of play and dominated the second half. Foden scored the equaliser with a thumping low strike from the edge of the area before a Julian Alvarez penalty and late Bernardo Silva chip clinched all three points.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

"In the second half, wow. I think we blew them away with the way they played," Foden added. "I want to praise Everton because I think they've been doing really well recently and are a top side. They make it difficult. I'm really happy with the result. It's a difficult place to come."

'WE BLEW THEM AWAY'

City have won their last eight matches at Goodison Park in all competitions. The last time they failed to win there was in Pep Guardiola's first season in 2017, when they were thrashed 4-0.

DID YOU KNOW?

City won for just the second time in seven Premier League games and will be looking to build on the momentum when they host relegation-threatened Sheffield United on Saturday, in a bid to put the pressure on title rivals Liverpool and Arsenal.
