Pep Guardiola appeared at a press conference with several scratches on his head and a small cut on his septum.
Following Feyenoord’s heroic feat against Manchester City in the Champions League, where they recovered from a 3-0 deficit to secure a dramatic 3-3 draw at the Etihad Stadium, the English team’s manager, Pep Guardiola, showed up for the press briefing with noticeable scratches on his face and a small cut on his septum.
Stunned by the condition of the Spanish coach, a journalist asked during the press conference: “Sorry to go off-topic, but I see you have some cuts.” The former footballer did not dodge the question: “Yes, I cut myself using my fingers, my nails.” “And why did you do that?” the reporter pressed on. “I wanted to hurt myself,” Pep concluded.
Manchester City has now faced five defeats and one draw in their last six matches. Their next opponent in the domestic league will be Liverpool. Last Thursday, Guardiola signed a two-year contract extension. Just two days later, the Citizens fell to a 4-0 defeat against Tottenham at home.

The team managed by Guardiola went from a commanding 3-0 lead in the 75th minute to a bitter 3-3 draw. A brace from Erling Haaland, along with a goal from Ilkay Gündogan, seemed to secure the victory for the Citizens, but the final quarter of the match turned into a nightmare for the English champions, who watched as their Dutch rivals leveled the score.
