Manchester City coach, Pep Guardiola, Concluded at the end: “It was a good show, we dominated from the start. We came back with a good result from the first game and after the two early goals we scored everything was easier, but the way we played was very good. We moved the ball quickly between players in different positions. Ruben Diaz and John Stones have taken a big step forward for the team, they all play well, not only the defensive players, but also the strikers and link players do a great job. It is important that we defend the ball as a team. “
Conqueror of Manchester City’s first goal, Kevin de Bruyne, Referring at the end to advancing to the quarterfinals and saying: “Our opening certainly helped us a lot. We were patient at first, then scored two goals that gave us confidence. We controlled the game and got into some situations in the second half, we were less good in it compared to the first half, but it is understandable and acceptable. “
“We try to make a move into the extension as we go forward, with different players in different areas. Sometimes it’s hard, Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero do the same job when they play, but when they are not playing we adopt similar positions to ourselves and it works. It is always important to be stable on defense and as a team in general, the data of our defense is very good for Ederson and for the defensive players. It’s easy to win and get good results when you don’t absorb. “
