Feyenoord boss Van Bronckhorst: Man City are one of the best teams in the world

Feyenoord boss Giovanni Van Bronckhorst is well aware of the challenge his side will face against Manchester City on Tuesday night.

The Sky Blues are unbeaten in 18 games across all competitions and have won their last 16 in a row. Pep Guardiola's side have already advanced to the next round, while Feyenoord are yet to register a point.

And the Dutchman understands his team are welcoming one of the best teams in Europe to Rotterdam tomorrow night.

Speaking at his prematch press conference, Van Bronckhorst said: "The first game we played against them at home, it was an outstanding performance from City.

"They have only drawn once, against Everton at home. All the other teams couldn't cope with the level they have and the football they are showing.

"I don't think you will find a person in this room, or Europe or the world even, to say that City are not one of the best teams at the moment.''
