Pep Guardiola slammed for disrespecting Liverpool - "He over-Pepped it"

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has been slammed for disrespecting Liverpool with his team selection for Saturday's FA Cup semi-final.

Guardiola made seven changes from the starting line-up that held Atletico Madrid to a goalless draw last Wednesday, sealing their place in the Champions League semi-finals in the process. But it was a decision that would backfire badly on the Spaniard, with the Reds going three goals up before half-time.

Jurgen Klopp side were dominant in the opening 45 minutes and went ahead through Ibrahima Konate's header. The Reds then capitalised on a horrendous error by City keeper Zack Steffen, preferred to start over normal first-choice Ederson, to double their lead through Sadio Mane.
