A 3-2 defeat by Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday has probably cost them the opportunity to be crowned champions next week, and the trophy's destination may not be decided until the final day.

His 20th league game was one to forget though, as Brighton bounced back from conceding an early opener to punish City's profligacy in front of goal.

Instead, Brighton equalised on the stroke of half-time and carried that momentum into the second half.

"It's about details," Jeglertz said. "It was a tough game, but it is about scoring goals. We created a lot of chances in the first half and we needed to score.

" Once the momentum shifted in Brighton's favour, City struggled to cope with the hosts' transitions and looked vulnerable to balls in behind the backline. "Brighton challenged us a lot - we need to protect our penalty box a little better," Jeglertz said. "It's important we learn from this game.
