Pep Guardiola apologized to Leyton Orient fans after qualifying for “Leyton” to qualify them at his pre-match press conference.
The league a more commonly known as “Orient” gave Manchester City an all-powerful fear in FA Cup on Saturday. An astonishing man put the guests in mind, with the long -range effort by Jamie Donley bouncing on the crossbar and the goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, who was credited with its own goal.
But City has made changes to the break and two of their submarines – Kevin de Bruyne and Abdukodir Khusanov – went on the match sheet to reserve their place in the last 16.
After the final whistle, Guardiola applauded the four corners of the crowd of the Brisbane road, which created an electric atmosphere throughout the equality of the fourth round. The former boss of Barcelona also extended his apologies when he was underlined, during his post-match press functions, which he had deceived his name.
“Sorry,” he said. “Listen, I don't want to offend anyone. I have been offended several times, but I don't want to offend. I'm really sorry for the people of this charming stadium.
“I said before Leyton Orient – I say it correctly now – is special. You feel it, you feel it. I like that. This is my ninth season in England.

“I play several times in lower divisions and in this incredible competition, so the atmosphere, the smell of the crowd and everything, you play in the FA Cup and you cannot find it in other places, especially in These games. “
Guardiola appointed a solid alignment of the city, despite Star striker Erling Haaland a rest, with new signatures Omar Marmoush, Nico Gonzalez and Vitor Reis among those who start. But Orient gave largely the best they have obtained, and would have forced prolonged times with one of their last opportunities to equalize.
Guardiola admitted that his players made their chance against the opponents that they should have beat comfortably on paper. “We were lucky at the end because they had a chance,” he said. “But we have created a lot and the goalkeeper [Josh Keeley] was really, really good.
“Yeah, it was a tight game and we knew it for the situation we have, but we behaved very well, we reacted very well with great character and yes, we are the next turn. It's always Nice.
