Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola praised his players after their 0-0 draw at FA Cup opponents Huddersfield.

Guardiola felt his players acquitted themselves well on a pitch he thought was heavy after hosting a Super League match on Thursday.

He said: "I said a big compliment to the team because I know how difficult that game is with the pitch. Two days ago they played rugby and everything is a bit slow, they are so aggressive, they are so dynamic.

"They have a really good team, that is why they are where they are in the Championship. We will play the replay for the first time in my life and we will try and qualify.

"The first half we had our chances, the goalkeeper was brilliant. The second half maybe we played a bit better but we didn't create too many chances."
