Man City boss Guardiola scoffs: I offended Tsimikas? C'mon

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was happy to wind up Liverpool players after Julian Alvarez's equaliser on Saturday.

City eventually won 4-1 with Guardiola seen mocking Liverpool substitutes Kostas Tsimikas and Arthuer after Alvarez's goal.

"I was happy and I said, 'How nice was our goal?'" the Spaniard said. "That's all. Of course (it was an attempt at humour). Come on."

"No, come on. I am so sorry. I speak with Tsimikas. You people say it is a lack of respect. Ask him if I lack respect.

"I celebrate a goal. Normally I celebrate with my son on the floor. I come here and said, 'The goal was nice, wasn't it?'"

"That's all. I'm so sorry. You think it was a lack of respect? Ah okay, sorry. I'm so sorry."
