Manchester City and Real Madrid drew 3-3 in the Champions League yesterday, and the suspense will remain until next week's Etihad Stadium!
England youngster Phil Foden once again showed his superstar style, scoring a beautiful long-range strike to help his side equalise. However, it is a pity that Foden seemed to have a small injury at the end of the game and was substituted, which made many fans sweat.
But don't worry! In the post-match interview, Foden said that he was fine, just a little cramped, and after recuperation, he should be able to catch the next game against Real Madrid. Gua Shuai also breathed a sigh of relief, saying that it was just a small accident, and Foden was still a little dissatisfied with his substitution decision!
Manchester City now face a dilemma: they have an important league game to play on Saturday, against relegation side Luton Town. Although the Champions League is the most important event for Guardiola, the league championship cannot be lost!
Based on Foden's optimistic statement, he should be available for the game against Luton Town. However, Pep Guardiola will have to think carefully about whether to risk Phil Foden as a starter, as they will be at home to Real Madrid in four days' time.
Foden has been a definite man of the pack for City this season, scoring 22 goals and providing 10 assists in 45 appearances in all competitions, with 14 goals in the league and five in the Champions League.
In addition to Foden, the situation of Kyle Walker, Natan Ake and Kevin De Bruyne has also touched Guardiola's heart. De Bruyne even missed the starting line-up due to a sudden illness before the game, and it is not known if he will be able to make it in time for the next crucial game against Real Madrid.
