It is the most of any manager in the history of the competition (four with Barcelona, three with Bayern Munich, two with City).
The Premier League champions will take on Real Madrid in the semis as they eye another final appearance.
Up next for City is the semi-final clash with Liverpool in the Emirates FA Cup.
They are still in the running for the treble in the current campaign.

Exactly how Unai Emery praised Bayern Munich who he expected should’ve been at the semis. Pep is very good but his country or other countries hasn’t seen him in that light. The match against Real Madrid with the current form of Bezema is going to be a mouth watery cracker. There could be a Victor Ikpeba’s prediction but we wait to see.
@M.Abass, I met one idiot on another thread who was comparing Giardiola to Eguavoen. I reminded him Eguavoen has been a national team for sometime why his Guardiola and cohorts are just club side coaches, so there wasn’t any basis for comoarison. If it was Luis Enrique García, I could have been no2 but rather no1 person to support his appointment despite the huge cost to the country.
