Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola appeared in press statements after the 1-0 victory over Leeds United in the 28th round of the English Premier League.

The coach said: 'We passed the ball countless times, controlled the counterattacks, and then in the last 20 minutes, we created more chances. It's a great victory and keeps us in the competition.'

On Leeds' pressure: 'All teams act like this, but Bernardo and Rodri delivered a great performance. Once again, the players put in an exceptional effort, because without that, the victory wouldn't have been possible.'

On Antoine Semenyo: 'No one knows, it's similar to Marc [Guehi]. Things went well in many aspects.'

On the return of Haaland, who missed today's match due to a minor injury: 'I hope for his return... but I don't know when he will be back.'

On his team's ability to continue performing well: 'Game after game. Recovery is important, there are many matches, and the players are tired. Every match is extremely difficult. Wolverhampton won yesterday. The Premier League is stronger than ever, qualifying for the Champions League is the club's main goal, as we've been there for the past ten years.'

Regarding this team compared to previous teams, he concluded: 'I don't know. Do you want me to tell you what will happen against Nottingham Forest? I don't know. Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to play in the FA Cup against Newcastle next Saturday at 11:00 instead of 6:00, then travel to face Real Madrid on Wednesday at 11:00 (meaning there is not enough rest period).'
