Bayern Munich’s German head coach Thomas Tuchel looks on ahead the German first division Bundesliga football match between SC Freiburg and Bayern Munich in Freiburg on April 8, 2023. AFPPIX: Manchester City and Pep Guardiola have a Champions League score to settle against Thomas Tuchel, when the newly-appointed Bayern Munich boss visits the Etihad in Tuesday's quarter-final, first leg.
Chelsea's 1-0 win in front of largely empty Estadio do Dragao in Porto due to coronavirus restrictions two years ago was a case of the apprentice outshining the master. Two football obsessives, the pair even talked long into the night at a Munich bar in 2014, using glasses and salt and pepper shakers to mimic formations.
The respect is mutual. Guardiola described Tuchel last season as “one of the few managers I learn from to develop a better manager myself.”Three Chelsea wins in the space of six weeks towards the end of the 2020/21 season are Tuchel's only victories in 10 meetings between the two to Guardiola's six.
The 49-year-old now has the challenge of succeeding where Guardiola failed in leading Bayern back to Champions League glory.In his seventh season in Manchester, Guardiola is in the running for his fifth Premier League title.“It doesn’t mean I agree with that but absolutely we will be judged by this competition,“ said Guardiola on the importance of winning the Champions League to his legacy at the Etihad.
