Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola admits he was unhappy with Riyad Mahrez during their 6-3 win over RB Leipzig in the Champions League.
The Citizens put on an attacking clinic against the German outfit, with Guardiola managing his 87th win in the Champions League.
Despite Mahrez getting on the scoresheet, he found himself on the end of a verbal outburst from Guardiola.
The Spanish boss explained his reaction, saying Mahrez was ignoring half-time instructions he was given.
Guardiola told BT Sport: "We spoke in half-time about the way we had to do it and they didn't do it. But it happens.
"They [Leipzig] are so good, they make four players in the build-up to attract you, and after they find you behind the holding midfielders, where there are a lot of players, when the ball goes outside put it inside.
"And after they are so fast to attack in behind. So it's not absolutely easy to control it."
