The Spanish mentor Manchester City continues his successful performance at the head of the English club.
The meeting with Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League was in many ways special for Manchester City head coach Josep Guardiola.
Recall that the champions of England played out a draw in the second leg in Munich, thanks to which they reached the semi-final stage of the tournament.
According to BT Sport, the match against Germany became the 400th for a specialist in the leader of the “citizens”. At the same time, players cannot give their mentor another victory.
If Manchester City did not miss the victory in the last minutes of the match, then it became for the 52-year-old Spaniard 100 in the Champions League. Now the anniversary will take place no earlier than the semi-final confrontation with Real Madrid.
However, another outstanding achievement was submitted to the specialist. Pep Guardiola became the first specialist to lead his team to the semi-finals of the Champions League ten times. The closest chaser is Carlo Ancelotti, who has 9 such exits.
It is worth saying that Pep also has 3 appearances in the final of the tournament. He won the tournament twice with Barcelona in 2009 and 2011, with Man City losing in 2021 to Chelsea.
