Guardiola reveals why Man City lost to Liverpool
By Boluwatife Ezekiel Olaleye
Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has pointed out his tactical decision as the reason they lost to Liverpool in their Champions League quarter-final clash.
Guardiola made a big decision ahead of kick-off with former Liverpool winger, Raheem Sterling left on the bench and Ilkay Gundogan handed a start at Anfield.
The move, however, backfired, as Jurgen Klopp’s men scored three first-half goals without reply, to take a commanding first-leg lead.
After the match, Guardiola told reporters he was looking for “more passing, more control” with the inclusion of Gundogan.
Asked if it worked, he replied: “We lost three zero.”
Guardiola added: “Nobody believes we will go through. We will convince ourselves tomorrow.”
