Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden has returned to action following a three-match ban in the Premier League. The England international was punished after a controversial kick at Bruno Fernandes during the Manchester derby.
Foden made his comeback in the match against Ipswich, where he wasted no time in making an impact, scoring the opening goal and helping the Citizens secure a hard-fought 3-2 victory.
Following the game, Foden spoke with BBC Radio Manchester about his tumultuous time away from the pitch.
It’s been a really tough period. It’s been over a month.
I couldn't play, which was incredibly frustrating. I had to be patient and sometimes train alone, which wasn’t easy.
To step back onto the pitch today, score a goal, and help the team earn three points is something I’ve been thinking about for a long time.
