Man City kicked out by Lyon, see these 4 important records

DBasia.news – Manchester City will have to postpone their ambition to be the best in Europe, for at least one more season, after being knocked out in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Manchester City was defeated by Olympique Lyon 3-1 at Estadio Jose Alvalade, Sunday (16/8) AM. Kevin De Bruyne’s goal in the 69th minute was met by three goals by Lyon through Maxwel Cornet (24 ‘) and Moussa Dembele (79’, 87 ‘).

With these results, Manchester City had prepared to leave. Meanwhile, Lyon had advanced to the semifinals against Bayern Munchen, who first sauntered after crushing Barcelona.

The failure of Manchester City also means the failure of Pep Guardiola. The manager was again unable to bring Manchester City to an achievement in the most prestigious event at the European club level.

Since being seven times in the Champions League quarter-finals as coach, Pep Guardiola has had three failures. All of these minor records were made with Manchester City (2017-2018, 2018-2019 and 2019-2020). Meanwhile, the other two teams Guardiola coached were Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

In addition, the Spanish manager also failed to match the achievement of Jose Mourinho who has led his team to qualify for the semifinals of the Champions League eight times. Currently, Guardiola has seven.

Pep Guardiola had difficulty bringing his team to the Champions League after leaving Barcelona in 2012. Two Champions League titles that Guardiola embraced as a coach were when he coached the Blaugrana in the 2008-2009 and 2010-2011 seasons.
