Man City boss Guardiola snaps at reporter: How many times have you seen RB Leipzig play?

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola appeared to take offense to a reporter's question this week.

The Citizens coach was speaking after his side's disappointing 1-1 draw with RB Leipzig in the Champions League.

If City want to progress to the last eight, they will now have to win the home leg of the tie against the German club.

"I'm happy for all game, not just the first half," Guardiola said, defensively, when asked by a reporter if his side's display upset him.

"What do you expect? We play a friendly game here... how many games have you [seen] of Leipzig? How many games?

"Come on. So people expect we are here and we win 0-5? That is not a reality. It's a competition that in the group stages many important teams are out and it's difficult.

"We knew it with four games in 10 days... the travels and the people expect. No. We are a good team that we do many, many good things and we will continue to do this and the people expect to come here 0-4, I'm sorry we are not able to do this."
