Guardiola praises Doku and Savinho:

“It was a good game. In the first half it was a good game. The first half was more open and the second half defended them very deep.

“You always have the threat, but it's not easy to control you. We dropped them. The team dropped there through our pressing or division.

“I think Doku and Savinho played an incredible game and come a lot into the Byline, but then we only missed the magic from there.

“We played really well, so I didn't regret it. The chances in the last third, if we want to shoot and cross, for the amount we arrived there, we didn't create much. “

They really threaten, but we bring them there and everything we missed is that in the last third it depends on the talent to dribble or shoot at the right moment. From there we build for the future.

“We are far away. We will see in the future. What we did in earlier seasons is good, but now we are gone from them. We played with personality what was really good.”

Pep Guardiola speaks to Sky Sports:

“We played very well. Maybe we missed more productivity in the recordings, but we played against a fantastic team. Maybe it was 50-50 and we couldn't convert.
