Guardiola, a two-time winner of the competition as Barcelona manager, is still chasing that elusive Champions League crown with City, and insists winning it is the sole aim.


He told BT Sport: “We are here to try and win the Champions League. It is one step, if we think that is enough we will show how small we are. If you want to win you have to beat the big clubs.

“It is important, we beat [Real] twice. Zinedine Zidane never lost knockout games. You see the calm and personality they play with, they are good.”

On the game, Guardiola added: “We created a lot of chances and scored two goals with mistakes from them. We tried to convince them to go, go and attack but it is not easy against this team.”

He then said in his press conference: “This competition punishes you, we know that from our own experiences. Jesus was the man of the two games for us, he set up the first and scored the second. We more than deserve to be in the next stage.”

Lyon went through against Juventus on away goals following a 2-2 aggregate draw, and Guardiola says his scouts have already told him to be wary of the French side.

just spoke with the scouting department (about Lyon) and they told me to be alert. We have eight days to prepare for it. We will enjoy it and then after we will think about Lyon.”
