The Manchester City strategist appears in a screenshot gesturing with his hands where four of his fingers can be seen, hinting at his side’s 4-0 win over Meringues in the Champions League. In the Iberian country, photography makes people talk.
Pep Guardiola is aiming for his third Champions League. The strategist does not hide his joy after eliminating Real Madrid from the Champions League with Manchester City. “I’m culé, I’m from Barca, of course I’m happy to beat Madrid,” he said after the semi-final. Now another situation is causing unease in Spain.
After the duel, the strategist of the British box took a photo where he appears showing four fingers, in clear allusion to his team’s victory over the meringues. In the capture, he is seen with his brother; Abdulla Khouri, Chairman of Abu Dhabi Motorsport Management; Mauricio Macri, former president of Argentina; Khaldoon Al Mubarak, boss of the group to which Manchester City belongs; Alberto Agassi, member of the board of directors; Joan Patsy. The citizen’s scarf of the former Transandean president also attracts attention.
The image was shared by Manel Estiarte, one of Guardiola’s collaborators, on his social networks. However, a few hours after downloading it, he deleted the recording.

For the glory
That of the hand was not the only gesture that made noise in his country of origin. After speaking with the media, the DT closed the conference with a sentence that was not seen by everyone present. “Having said that, welcome back to Spain,” said the strategist, which some took as a joke.
Guardiola is happy with the win. Both for the result and for the level displayed in Manchester. “We played with the stomachache from last year and we got rid of it. These games have to be played with a lot of intensity and I’m very happy to be in the final. In the first moto I decided to put an inside further back and today we decided to put it further forward and that gave us more fluidity. We were very good afterwards,” he said after the match.
Well on track in the Premier League and finalist in the Champions League, the former Bayern Munich hopes to complete a dream season. Regarding the definition against Inter Milan, he specifies that: “We will have time to prepare it. Now the league comes first, then the finals will come. We have to face an Italian team. There’s nothing better for an Italian than not to favorite them. But the time will come to talk about it,” he said.
