Manchester City's Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich on Tuesday is the first meeting between Guardiola and Tuchel this season.
At the beginning of the season, Tuchel only lasted until the first Champions League group match at Chelsea and was fired. Tuchel may not have thought that he would lead another team to the Champions League so soon, and the opponent was still quite familiar to him - Guardiola.
Regarding the score of 0 to 3 in the first round at the Etihad Stadium, Tuchel can only try to resolve the negative impact it may have on the players after the game.
Since the second round will return to the Allianz Arena in Munich, Tuchel still hopes to counterattack at home at that time, which also allows him to not criticize his team and players too much when he is behind by a large score in the first round.
The state of Tuchel after the game made the English media a little uncomfortable. Before coaching at Chelsea, the English reporters regarded the interview after the game as a replay of the game. Tuchel did not analyze the game itself too much this time. Instead, it emphasizes that the score of 0 to 3 does not reflect the true state of the game.
"I try to make my players not pay too much attention to the score now, because it doesn't reflect the game itself. This game we went into the battle with our own style and courage, and in the end we didn't get what we deserved. Return. I think we deserved at least one goal in this game, and we should not concede as many goals as we do now. I think our players lack some confidence and form. Of course, the score of 0 to 3 makes us feel a little Bitter, but the way we played today made me fall in love with this team even more, even if it sounds a little strange, but I enjoy the joy of the process!"
Compared with Tuchel, Guardiola was a little excited after the game, and even lost his composure at the press conference, "I'm actually a bit emotionally broken, and now I feel like I'm suddenly 10 years older. It was a very exhausting game, so there is no comfort in my personal feeling right now!"
What's interesting is that although Guardiola revealed that the progress of the game was exactly in line with the coaching staff's pre-match plan, Bayern did make Manchester City suffer an hour before the game. Rodri's long-range shot gave Manchester City an early lead, but Guashuai emphasized that Bayern showed no signs of panic when they fell behind 0-1. "Even if Rodri scored such a wonderful goal, we still couldn't control the situation for a while. Especially in the first 5 to 15 minutes of the second half, Bayern played better and created more chances. So I must say that the first 55 to 60 minutes of this game was really a tough battle for us!"
What really stabilized Manchester City was Bernardo Silva's goal in the 70th minute. When Guardiola replayed the game, he emphasized that this goal came just right, which to a certain extent completely extinguished Bayern's counterattack Confidence: "When you actually face Bayern on the field, you know what a good team they are. They actually did a very good defense today. As I said, the top 60 of this game We played very hard in the first minute. In many periods, Bayern was indeed the better team than us. But after the 65th minute, we scored the second goal. From this goal, you can also feel that we are on the field The aggressiveness and the 2-0 score also helped us to gain a firm footing. We then made some adjustments, and our performance before the end of the ball was significantly improved. I am very satisfied with the final score of 3-0 !"
After the first-leg victory, Guardiola declared that he would take a day off and immediately focus on the weekend's league game against Leicester City.
캡주소 analysis, after all, the league title rival Arsenal just lost points in the last round, Manchester City must continue to put pressure on the Gunners, in order to strive for the triple crown of the league, Champions League and FA Cup at the end of April, and the chances are very high.
As for the second round of the guest in Munich next week, Guardiola said that the team will not be careless, "I have stayed in Munich for several years, and I know the strength of this team and the spirit they have. Therefore, the second round is very important to us. Still a big test!"
