EPL: We couldn’t punish Man Utd – Guardiola reflects on 0-0 draw

Published on April 06, 2025 at 08:37 PM

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted that his team found it difficult to break down Manchester United's defensive formation.

The Premier League derby between the two sides ended in a goalless draw at Old Trafford on Sunday.

City had a handful of chances, mostly falling to Omar Marmoush, but were unable to find a way past United goalkeeper, AndrÃ© Onana.

Speaking to the media after the match, Guardiola described United’s tactical set-up as “difficult”; to contend with.

He said: “We know that playing against a 5-4-1 is always difficult. They defended very narrowly and allowed us only to operate on the flanks, outside the congestion.

“For many years, I’ve come up against teams using the 5-4-1, defending deep. So it’s nothing new. Normally, we manage to find a way through because of the quality and talent of our players.

“But sometimes there’s an extra element missing â€” perhaps sharpness or composure â€” and that’s something we cannot always predict. They didn’t play brilliantly, but we weren’t in a position to punish them either.

“They tried, we tried â€” but we weren’t good enough in key moments to really hurt them or take advantage of the spaces that opened up.”;
