Hamann slams Man City boss Guardiola: He suffocates his team | OneFootball

Former Germany midfielder Dietmar Hamann has slammed Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola after their Champions League semifinal defeat to Real Madrid.

City appeared to have one foot in the final in Paris when Riyad Mahrez put them two goals ahead on aggregate with 17 minutes to go but Real forced extra-time with a sensational comeback.

Rodrygo scored twice in 90 seconds to level the tie before Karim Benzema's penalty in extra-time sent Real through at the expense of Guardiola's devastated City side in one of the most dramatic matches in Champions League history.

"If you give players responsibility they act responsible," Hamann wrote on Twitter. "If you try to play the game for them they won't.

"Guardiola suffocates teams and players to make their own decisions. Compare that to Ancelotti's or Klopp's teams."
