It looks like a derby already, four years in a row facing Madrid. Madrid or Bayern, both were really tough, hopefully we can arrive in the first leg here and the next one in Madrid as best as possible.
Earlier, Guardiola commented on Erling Haaland's performance in the current Premier League season and explained how he motivates the Manchester City players during tough times for the club.
