Manchester City head coach Josep Guardiola commented on the match they lost to Al Hilal in the Club World Cup. Sport24.az reports that he said the following about the match that ended with a score of 3:4:
"All games are difficult at these stages. We allowed the opponent to play. Although we created a lot of chances ourselves, we couldn't win. Our overall performance was good. The opponent's goalkeeper Bono performed incredibly.
I think the team is progressing well. True, we said goodbye to the tournament, but now we will start to rest and prepare for the new season more vigorously."
