Man City's Pep Guardiola vows to stick to principles despite loss at Leicester

LEICESTER, England -- Pep Guardiola says he will not compromise his principles despite his Manchester City side being well beaten by Leicester City.

The Premier League Champions led at one stage by four goals thanks to a Jamie Vardy hat trick and Andy King strike before two late goals from Aleksander Kolarov and Nolito made the final scoreline look a more respectable 4-2.

But Guardiola insisted his side didn't play badly, though he admitted he must quickly find a way of stopping the opposition from scoring so easily.

"I have to improve to solve that, yes, that's true," he told a news conference.
