Koke sends Man City warning and comments on Pep Guardiola style of play

Atletico Madrid star Koke has warned Manchester City that his side won't compromise on their style of football when they meet once again on Wednesday.

City hold a narrow advantage going into the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final tie as they won the opening match 1-0 thanks to Kevin De Bruyne's excellent finish. Despite dominating proceedings, it took the Blues 70 minutes to break the deadlock as Atletico remained incredibly solid and difficult to break down.

It meant the reigning Spanish champions didn't actually have a shot on goal themselves in the match but they remain well in the tie ahead of playing the second leg on home soil. Koke says he loves City's style of football but that he also adores Atletico's more robust approach.
