Daniel Munoz put the hosts in front before Erling Haaland equalised for the visitors before the break.
Maxence Lacroix then restored Palace’s lead despite City’s dominance.
Rico Lewis eventually levelled the game again before he was shown a second yellow.
Speaking after the game, Guardiola admitted that City made mistakes, adding that Palace were stronger than his team on set pieces.
“Football is a game of mistakes,” Guardiola said in his post-match interview.
“We made a fantastic two goals and of course in the set pieces right now they are stronger than us, every single team, so we try to concede few and that is what we are doing. To come back in this stadium is not easy; we tried, and I’m really pleased with many things I saw.”
