MARCA – Pep Guardiola: Real Madrid are an example
MARCA SAYS Ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League semi-final first leg at the Bernabeu, Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola has praised Real Madrid for their European record and their consistency.
The Catalan coach was asked about City’s desire to win the Champions League and whether it is a failure that they haven’t done so already, as many have suggested.
However, he chose to focus on the importance of consistently performing at a high level, like Real Madrid do.
The Citizens have reached at least the quarter-finals for the last six years, but have only once made the final, when they lost to Chelsea in 2021. Los Blancos, meanwhile, have won the competition five times in the last 10 years.
