Man City 6-0 Burnley I try to punish Haaland, it is my intention – Guardiola

Here Is The Easy Money-Making Trick Everyone Is Talking About! Learn More Here!

Pep Guardiola has established himself as one of the top head coaches in world football, having won multiple trophies with both Barcelona and Manchester City.

Aside from being a success story on the pitch, Guardiola has also displayed an amusing side during press conferences and games.

On March 18th against Burnley in the FA Cup Quarter Final, Guardiola made a hilarious reference to his former player Lionel Messi.

The night belonged to Erling Haaland who struck his 42nd goal of the season and completed yet another hat trick – his sixth of the campaign.

The Norwegian then scored five goals on Tuesday against RB Leipzig in the Champions League Last 8, making him only the third-ever player after Messi and Luiz Adriano to score five times in a single Champions League game.

Guardiola seemingly tried to protect Messi’s record by substituting Haaland shortly after he’d scored three goals at the Etihad Stadium prior to international duty – making it clear that breaking the record was not his intention.

He jokingly remarked: “I try to punish my players – it is my intention”, drawing laughter from everyone present at the press conference.
