"They are so humble!" - Pep Guardiola praises his Manchester City players after Champions League win

Because we accepted defeat, it cannot be the opposite, and today we were there. And that's why, one year later, we are in the final of the Champions League. Football always gives you life, always gives you a sign of persistence. Don't give up, just try again, try again. The important thing is to be there. We are one game away from being three years in a row Premier League winners. One game away. And if this happens, we are three years in a row winning the Premier League, and we have been two final Champions League and one semi-final Champions League. And that is the consistency. Always I put examples of four times in a row Carabao Cup winners. That means the level of this. This team, there is one incredible detail that I am so proud of. They are so humble. Every game, it doesn't matter, the opening, the competition, he takes it seriously. He won't do that, it's because they are so humble. And that is what I'm proud of. I hate the arrogance in sports. I hate the moment that you believe something that you are not. And these guys have done, since many, many years, these type of things. And today, they got the reward they deserve. So we have time. It's not Italian team. I would say final against Italian team. The people are going to talk now, they are not favourites. We are favourites, da-da-da-da-da-da. It's the worst that can happen. But we have time to prepare and now we just focus on Chelsea because we have to try to close it as soon as possible to prepare United and Inter de Milan. Pep, how do you deal with that position of being favourites? Because everyone expects you to win the Premier League against Chelsea. Everyone expects you to beat Manchester United and win the FA Cup. And now everyone expects you to go and finish off the trouble by beating Inter Milan. Yeah, that is so difficult when you cannot accomplish that. But when the people can... You can listen, you are favourites, favourites. You believe you are. You believe that you are something special. You are not. Always I say to the players, only you do better or sometimes better because you kick the ball better than the other opponent. That doesn't make you special at all. So just to do something you know better than the other ones. But that doesn't make... And leaving that, we are favourites, favourites. In the beginning of the season, favourites, favourites. So it's not easy to handle. But if it happens, maybe these guys deserve it. To be considered like that, what they have done in the past. It's so difficult in the modern era in football to do what these guys have done so far. And they play with the desire. We spoke just before to go to the pitch. We spoke and said, do you want to play against Inter or not? Do you want to play against Inter? Yeah or no? Ask yourself. If you play 90 minutes thinking, I want to play against Inter, you will beat Real Madrid. In the bad moments, if you want to play against Inter or Milan, you are going to win the game. And they play in that spirit that we need to do it.
