MANCHESTER – After being unexpectedly eliminated from the Champions League, Pep Guardiola appeared in the press room to comment on Manchester City-Tottenham. Guardiola focused on the two arbitral episodes, decided by the var, which sanctioned the elimination of his team. The Spanish coach is embittered especially on the Llorente network defined by him as "handball".

Guardiola's statements are reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport. "Yes, it's tough. It is cruel but we must accept it. I am in favor of the Var but perhaps Fernando Llorente's one-sided goal is handball, and seen from the side of the referee it is not. " And on the goal of 5-3 canceled by Sterling in the recovery adds: "I saw the action and who was in front of the screen decided that it was offside. We missed a penalty in the first leg but I am proud of my players and fans. I've never heard so much noise in the stadium since I was in Manchester, but football is unpredictable. "

Tottenham and Liverpool are in the Champions League semifinals, where they will play against Ajax and Barcelona respectively.
