Watch Ac Milan vs Manchester United Live StreamingBarca started the clash at the Vicente Calderon reasonably well but soon found themselves under serious pressure, going 2-0 down inside 23 minutes as well as seeing midfielder Seydou Keita limp off to join an already-lengthy list of absentees.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's 27th-minute strike gave Barca some hope, but the reigning champions could find no further in-roads during the remainder of the match as Atletico belied their lowly league position to stun the leaders.
Guardiola, whose side are now two points ahead of Real Madrid at the summit, said: "My team didn't play well, although you also have to acknowledge the performance of our opponents.
"We've lacked the control that helps us play our game. We've always been a team that ends up creating chances, and today it's been harder than normal for us due to the great job that Atletico have done.
"They've been very well organised and you have to congratulate them on the victory. We weren't sharp and we were lacking in our play and in our passing."
Guardiola also refused to blame his side's defeat on the fact they were missing so many players in defence.
