Slide continues for Guardiola and Man City in Champions League exit

Associated Press  

MADRID — The search for answers will continue for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City. Guardiola couldn’t find a way to keep City alive in the Champions League on Wednesday, when another poor performance led to a 3-1 loss to Real Madrid and a 6-3 aggregate defeat to the Spanish powerhouse in the playoffs. Guardiola was hoping he could fix the team’s issues in time to avoid the early elimination this season, the first in which the league phase and the playoffs stage was introduced. But the poor performances that affected the team the whole season proved costly, as it couldn’t qualify high enough to avoid the playoffs, where it was drawn to play 15-time European champion Madrid. Guardiola, who led City to its first Champions League title in 2023, has been saying his team is “miles away” from where it should be, though it had showed spurts of the dominant squad that he led to a series of titles in recent years, including in the 4-0 rout of Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday.
