Man City boss Guardiola happy with Cup semi win: Desire was there

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was pleased with their Carabao Cup semifinal second-leg win at Burton Albion.

City won 1-0 last night to take the tie 10-0.

“It went well, the pitch was so dangerous and slippery, but we made a good game, we missed a little bit the last pass and the finishing, but it was good," said Pep.

Burton had two or three clear chances – Aro was outstanding. We're in the final and that's what's important.

“The game was completely different from the first leg because we started with a 9-0 lead, but I didn't see a lack of desire or to play like we believed we were something that we are not.

“We played seriously with no injuries and both Kevin and Sergio played 60 to 65 minutes with high intensity."
