Guardiola Says Madrid Deserved Win as Man City Exit Champions League
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola admitted that Real Madrid’s early goal set the tone for their 3-1 Champions League defeat on Wednesday night.
Los Blancos entered the second leg with a narrow 3-2 lead, and within five minutes at the Bernabeu, Kylian Mbappe struck first, lifting the ball over Ederson.
Mbappe went on to score a stunning hat-trick before Nico Gonzalez pulled one back for City, but it wasn’t enough. Madrid sealed their place in the last 16 with a 6-3 aggregate victory.
Speaking to TNT Sports, Guardiola acknowledged that his team struggled after conceding so early. “We didn’t defend well, and from that point, it became more difficult,” he said.
He congratulated Real Madrid, admitting they deserved to go through. “It’s the first year we haven’t had a strong Champions League run. We have to accept it and fight to be here again next season.”
Guardiola also named Madrid as strong contenders for the title but noted that other top teams are still in the race. For now, City will shift their focus back to the Premier League.
Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.
The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”
“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.
