Pep Guardiola thinks his strategy in the FA Cup final 'wasn't good' against Manchester United.
The FA Cup final defeat against Manchester United was attributed to Man City's manager, Pep Guardiola.
At Wembley, Guardiola's team lost 2-1, and even Jeremy Doku's late goal could not spark a comeback.
"Let me start by congratulating Manchester United," he said at the press conference after the game.
"I had a poor game plan. The second part was far superior. We had greater intensity.The rationale is known to the players. It wasn't a good tactic.
"You had different positions and a game plan, but it didn't work out.
We controlled the game, just as we did against United, but we were unable to produce as we did in the second half.
"We're not happy with today. Losing in the championship game is common, but this season has been exceptional.We have spirited competition for every trophy. We must now relax before returning.
In addition, Guardiola praised Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, saying, "I don't know, but he is a lovely person, an extraordinary manager; winning the FA Cup was important for them like it was for us last season."
