"The result is not so important but the way we fought for each other, that is," said City manager Pep Guardiola.
"It is the pre-season, just like the last game against United where we lost but did good things.
If we play in this intensity, that is our dream to be more stable and solid and of course Kyle Walker and Danilo and also Mendy will help us increase our intensity.
“As I say, the result is not so important, but the way we fought for each other to play, that’s the most important thing. We need to build something, it’s just pre-season a friendly game.”
