Manchester: Kelechi Iheanacho accepted he missed a great chance to snatch a late winner for Manchester City against Stoke.
The Nigerian volleyed wide in the dying moments as Wednesday's rearranged EPL clash at the Etihad Stadium ended in a dull 0-0 draw.
The result cost City the chance to move to second in the table and left them 10 points behind leaders Chelsea. Iheanacho said: "As a striker you need to take chances.
We need to focus to put the chance (away) if it comes. It came and of course I missed it, but I focus on the next one - that is going to count." City manager Pep Guardiola rotated his squad for the game by leaving in-form Raheem Sterling out of his matchday squad and naming David Silva and John Stones on the bench.
