Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has held his press conference in Estadio do Dragao this afternoon ahead of Tomorrow’s UCL final.
The Spaniard will be aiming to lift the trophy for Man City for the first
time in club history.
There has been a lot of
anticipation towards this game tomorrow as all eyes will be a focus on the two
premier league giants in Portugal Tomorrow.
So Guardiola
on the UCL final, started by saying they will try to do their best game as
possible. i.e To do what they have been this time together for many years
because one needs to finish the process they started five years ago and he
thinks it will be a good game and the best team will win.
On penalties,
he said they can train for penalties but they can not apply the tension when it
happens for real. Just in case it arrives at a shootout, he will talk to the
players and he knows what he will tell them as he’s had weeks to think about
the game, not the shoot-out.
On his last
UCL Final which was during his time at FC Barcelona, he said it’s nice to
remember. In that UCL Final, he expressed well what he worked in that period in
Barcelona.
In Barcelona’s
Performance against Man United then (2011), he said he remembers and in that
type of game, the performance and especially the way against Man Utd one of the
greatest teams ever with Sir Alex, especially the way they play, he has good
memories of that. But it’s been 10 years, it’s a long time ago.
On team news, he said they have
no fresh injury concerns and he will be selecting the best lineup to win the
game tomorrow.
Guardiola said that they will try and be at their best tomorrow,
and of course, suffer to win the game.
Guardiola also said winning or
losing the UCL final tomorrow won’t have any effect on his future at the club
as he loves to stay.
Nonetheless, Chelsea has defeated Man City on two occasions this
season out of three meetings with City winning only one.
So, Can Tuchel beat Guardiola tomorrow?
