MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester City appeared in total control in a surgical second-half dismantling of Bayern Munich on Tuesday but Pep Guardiola looked aghast when a reporter asked if it was the most comfortable he and his team have felt this season.
"It was not comfortable at all, emotionally I'm destroyed," he said, prompting laughter."I 10 more years today."
Scoring machine Erling Haaland netted his 45th goal of the campaign, a single-season record for a Premier League player, in his maiden campaign. Rodri, with a highlight-reel strike, and Bernardo Silva also scored, taking City's extraordinary goal differential to 34-3 in their last nine games. "Football is football, a home match in Germany is a home match in Germany, and it will not be over until we're in the shower," said Tuchel, whose Chelsea side won the European Cup in 2021 in City's lone appearance in the final.
"Part of the game they were better than us," Guardiola said. "The second half, after we adjusted something, and in the last part of the game, the last minutes of the game, we were better, we scored three fantastic goals, we had more chances.
