At least Pep Guardiola knows who he will have to mark in the second leg.

The whole world is watching the Real Madrid vs. Manchester City match, and Josep Guardiola is already thinking about the most dangerous Real Madrid players. Surprisingly, for the coach, the most dangerous are neither Vinicius nor Karim Benzema.

These were Pep Guardiola's words about the most dangerous player: Guardiola: "We defend more with Toni Kroos as pivot. We would surely defend less without Kroos [in that role]." In other words, for Guardiola, the player who most influenced the match is Kroos.

In addition, it is a mutual admiration, since these are the words of Toni Kroos about Josep Guardiola: "His teams always play their football. You can always see that it is a Pep team. He always seeks to improve, with departures or with signings. He has 51 goals, so that combination doesn't work badly".

Toni Kroos and his trust in Madrid:

Toni Kroos, regarding the game vs Manchester City: “We have to play, score goals well, be good in defense against a team that usually scores three or four goals per game. I have played many like this and I trust our experience. It is impossible to be more motivated”
