Guardiola: We were the most ferocious in front of Liverpool .. We have to fight for the end

Pep Guardiola, manager of Manchester City, said that the race for the English Premier League would have ended if his team had lost against Liverpool, but a 2-1 victory helped him narrow the gap to 4 points of the "leaders" and to revive the club after the final defeats.

"The loss meant almost everything, 10 points, and the goal difference meant 11 points, which is really hard to overcome, but we are four points behind the opposition," Guardiola told reporters.

"We have to fight, but 4 points is a good reason to be calm," he said. "It's a good time to congratulate and thank the incredible players, they showed their skill and they played for an amazing team.That means the end of almost everything was equal again."

With his skillful and accurate passing style, Manchester City showed that he could work hard because he was playing vigorously throughout the stadium to put pressure on visitors when they were taking possession of the ball.

"It was important to play bravely, we were strong in pressure because we knew the situation was complicated and how quickly the opponent started to start," Guardiola said. We have done a lot of opportunities. Liverpool did not break a goal and scored two goals. "

Guardiola paid special tribute to his defender Emeric Laporte, who was forced to implicate him in the left back and made no mistake. "A huge tribute to him playing in this unusual position for him, he achieved an incredible performance against the three attacks."
