Guardiola explodes in anger: I will not be silent anymore!

Manchester City’s Spanish coach, Pep Guardiola, exploded in anger at the refereeing decisions that accompanied his team’s match against Newcastle in the FA Cup final, despite City qualifying for the quarter-finals after beating Newcastle 3-1.

Guardiola said in a press conference: “Some of the arbitration decisions I consider incomprehensible… It is not about imposing a penalty or not, but rather about those decisions that are difficult for me to understand.”

He added: “The wrong that was committed against Doku is very clear, and I will not remain silent anymore. This has been repeated many times.”

Guardiola continued his criticism, saying sarcastically: “We have all the records in this country, even for referees. I also hold the record for the number of yellow cards among coaches, and I am proud of that.”

He continued: “When Doku Trippier dribbled and set off on his own, he was pulled from behind. Everywhere this is counted as a violation…except here.”

Guardiola was angry that a foul was not given to his player Jeremy Doku following a clear intervention by Newcastle defender Kieran Trippier.

The Spanish coach confirmed that he will continue to defend his players, saying: “There are things that I cannot understand after ten years in England. Of course, I will defend Doku and all my team’s players.”

Guardiola will miss his team’s next two matches after receiving his sixth yellow card this season, according to the new regulations that stipulate a two-match suspension upon reaching this number of warnings.

Thus, the Manchester City coach will not be on the bench in the league match against West Ham, in addition to the quarter-final match of the FA Cup.
