“Football is a game of mistakes,” Guardiola said. “We scored two fantastic goals, but on set pieces, they are stronger than us right now—most teams are. We try to minimize those situations, and that’s what we’re working on.
“Coming back at this stadium is never easy, but we fought hard. I’m really pleased with many things I saw today.”
