Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, has stated that he despises hubris, which occurs when people assume they are something they are not.
The Spaniard remarked this when describing his City team as “very humble” in light of their achievements, which included a hammering of Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League encounter on Wednesday.
Manchester City dominated Los Blancos on Wednesday night, allowing the Spanish giants only 40% ball control.
They overcame a shock semi-final loss to Real Madrid last season, winning 5-1 on aggregate.
“Everything we went through last year was present today.” The way we lost was extremely difficult. We had to swallow the poison and declare, ‘I want it’.The energy from the previous year was still present. This group is quite humble.
“I despise arrogance, which is when you believe you are something you are not.” They received their reward today.
“Life always gives you a second chance.”
