City lost, losing 3-1 away to Real Madrid. The team once again fell on the Champions League knockout stage. Moreover, this time City's loss is the same as the previous few losses. Guardiola has changed sides, and this is also the reason for Manchester City's previous defeat, Guardiola always changes the lineup or tactics at key moments, which eventually leads to the team losing. I have to say that Guardiola is really a bit dead. I just don't know, will The next time Guardiola still choose to change the lineup or change the tactics? It depends on Gua Shuai.
In this game, Manchester City has an absolute advantage, and at the beginning of the game, Manchester City is still familiar with 433, or familiar with passing. However, when City took the lead, the real problem for the team came. After Mahrez scored, Guardiola waved a big hand, De Bruyne and Walker, Gundogan and Zinchenko, Jesus and Glaris. Following, Real Madrid scored a goal after Mahrez went down and Fernandinho went up. It can be said that Guardiola hopes to defend with all his strength at this time. However, defence has never been City's strength, their strengths are attack and control. When Manchester City began to defend, there were a lot of loopholes, and the result was that in the final stage of the game, all the Real Madrid players in the Manchester City penalty area, and finally Real Madrid ended the battle with two crosses.
Of course, this is not the first time that Guardiola has changed sides or changed tactics in key games. In last year's Champions League final, Guardiola temporarily changed sides, and there was no back in the final, and the result was that Chelsea took advantage of the loophole that Manchester City did not have a back, defeated Manchester City and won the Champions League. A year earlier, in the 19-20 season, Manchester City played against Lyon in the quarter-finals, and before the start of the game, Guardiola abandoned the 433 formation and changed to the 3142 lineup, resulting in players unfamiliar with the lineup and being eliminated by Lyon. In the previous two years, in the matches in which Manchester City were eliminated by Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, Guardiola changed his squad or tactics in key games, which eventually led to the team's defeat.
I have to say that Guardiola is really persistent, I don't know why, he always changes the lineup or tactics in key games. If Guardiola had not changed the key battle, perhaps Guardiola would have led the team to win the third Champions League title. I don't know why the more in the key game, the more cautious Guardiola is, the more cautious the players are. Players don't adapt to the game, how can the team get good results? Perhaps, next time, Guardiola needs to implement his football philosophy to the end, so that maybe Manchester City and Guardiola have a chance to win the Champions League!
