Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola speaks to his players during a training session in Istanbul//Reuterspix: Manchester City must overcome more than just a formidable Inter Milan defence as they seek to win the Champions League for the first time today, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
But Guardiola, bidding to become the first manager to win two trebles -- having claimed the LaLiga title, Copa del Rey and Champions League with Barcelona in 2009 -- was having none of that, insisting Inter have many more facets. “Inter have the ability to keep the ball and finish, they know how to attack from the centre and from the flanks. We will try to defend as well as possible, both high how low.”
“You have to be stable in finals. Defend well, attack and have control. You have to be patient. The most important thing is thinking it is 0-0 and we are not losing. Italian teams at 0-0 can think they are winning but they are not,” he said.
