Thanks for reading this MBM. Nighty night!
Pep Guardiola, not in the mood for nonsense, speaks to BT. “They made a step forward, pressed higher … after the goal we conceded, we came back and had a good last 20 minutes … we had good chances in both halves, and got a result so we decide in Manchester … I am happy for all the game.”
Then a testy exchange with interviewer Matt Smith, who replies: “Even though they came into it in the second half?”
“What do you expect? We play a friendly game here? How many games have you seen from Leipzig?”
“Yes, they’re a good team.”
“So come on! Do you expect us to come here and win 0-5? It is not a reality. It’s a competition where many good teams in the group stage are out. It is difficult. Four games in ten days, away all of those games, all the travel, and people expect? We are a good team that continue to do many things. If people expect us to come here and win 0-4, I’m sorry, we’re not able to do this.”
