Pep Guardiola Reaction

“It was so difficult a game. We knew it. They play with a lot of pride and intensity and it’s so difficult to play against them.

“Spurs will in the future be unbelievable if they stick with the manager. We gave the chance in our hands for the last game. The tennis players say ‘the serve to win Wimbledon’, the last game, is the most difficult one.

“It happened in our period against Aston Villa. And many many years ago it happened with Sergio Aguero [scoring] in 93 minutes 20 seconds against QPR. So there will be the typical game.

“We know what we’re playing for. The tension is there, the rival is so good. It’s why it is difficult, we know that. Everyone come to the stadium and make noise. These games are more difficult but you have to do it. We’ll have one day off, two days to prepare, and then we will do our best.”

“He defined I would say how the team is a team. Ortega saved the actions otherwise Arsenal will be champions,” the City boss reflected.

“Do you know how many times Son punished us in the last seven or eight years?.

“I said ‘No, not again.’ But Stefan made an incredible save. He has this talent. In one on ones, he is one of the best keepers I’ve ever seen in my life.

“It’s the German culture, stand-up, don’t go down, it’s really, really good. He’s played in the FA Cup and Carabao Cups, Ederson has four times setback for injuries.

“He’s so reliable and incredible keeper. The club made an incredible decision to bring him here.”
