Champions League: How Guardiola snubbed Man City players after Lyon defeat

Champions League: How Guardiola snubbed Man City players after Lyon defeat

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, did not enter the dressing room or speak to his players after they were dumped out of the Champions League last week.

City were beaten 3-1 by Lyon, after conceding two late Moussa Dembele goals.

Kevin De Bruyne had earlier cancelled out Maxwell Cornet's opener.

The defeat meant City were eliminated from the quarter-final stage for a third season in a row, having emerged big favourites during the mini-tournament in Lisbon.

City defender, Aleksander Zinchenko, has now opened up on Guardiola's reaction after the full-time whistle.

Zincheko told his partner, Vlada Seden, on her YouTube channel: "Guardiola didn't even enter the locker room, and didn't say a word after the match. What is there to say, if everything is clear?

"It's a shame for David Silva and Claudio Bravo - they played their last match for Manchester City. We wanted to win first of all for them."
