Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola has claimed that any
psychological advantage Liverpool now have over the Citizens will only be known
if both teams meet in the UEFA Champions League final.
Guardiola said this following Man City’s FA Cup semi-final
3-2 defeat to Liverpool over the weekend at Wembley.
Man City will face Real Madrid in the Champions League
semi-final and Liverpool will clash with Villarreal.
However, both Premier League giants could meet in the
Champions League final if they win their respective last-4 matches.
Asked if the impressive manner of the win could give
Liverpool the advantage in the race for both the Premier League and Champions
League between now and the end of the season, Guardiola insisted that would
only become apparent if both teams clashed in Paris for the European Cup on May
28.
“Well, there are more chances when at the end of the
season,” Guardiola said as quoted by Liverpool Echo.
“It’s just if both teams have reached the Champions League
final. And then we will see what happens.
“Now there are seven games left in the Premier League and we
know what we have to do. We will try to win the Premier League. Now we need to
rest. Today is just another one and we go game by game to try and develop.
“We have Brighton and Watford and Real Madrid and we want to
add another one. We will try everything and we will continue to go to the
final, if not, we will leave the competition.”
