Guardilla believes they will qualify in the semifinals

City has a small advantage in the return match against Dortmund, following Phil Foden's goal last night in the 9050th minute, a goal which provided the victory to City with a score of 2:1, followed by Kosova Pess.

In the last three seasons, Manchester City has been disqualified three times, where it has been eliminated from Liverpool, Tottenham and Lyon, but Guardiola has insisted that Premier League leader will continue to attack in the match against the German team.

We know we have to score goals because they have the quality to score and always mark. We'll see to work on things we couldn't do today. We will reflect calmly, the best possible way, and see what we can do best, so when we do the game as guests, we will continue as we have done in four, five, the last six months, we will go there to win the”, Guardilla said.

Before the match, I told you the players you just won this fight, I don't want anything else, and they got it. Now we will travel to Dortmund just to attack, absolutely not to protect ourselves. We're going to apply our game style, with high pressure, look at the schemes about the formation, and cover well the positions of their attackers, and we're going to try to play for 90% minutes, so that we can continue towards the semifinals”, the Spanish coach added.

Only Real Madrid (26) and Barcelona (20) have won more matches than Manchester City (13) against German teams in the Champions League, where City has won the last 11 matches of 12 held against Germans.
