Pep Guardiola Dismisses Man City's Chances Against Real Madrid as 'One Per Cent'

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted that his team faces a daunting task in their upcoming Champions League clash against Real Madrid. Despite leading 2-1 with just four minutes left in the first leg, City ended up losing 3-2 at home. Guardiola believes that City only have a "one per cent" chance of overcoming Real Madrid in the second leg at the Bernabeu. He acknowledges that the margin to win from their current position is slim, but remains hopeful for a miraculous comeback.

"But as much as you have a chance we will try, that's for sure. We are going like we always have done but, this season, the reality is we have been miles away. 

"We have been really, really poor in performances and results this season."

City go to Spain buoyed by a 4-0 win over Newcastle in the Premier League which kept them on course for a return to the Champions League even if this season's campaign ends on Wednesday.

"For one game, Saturday, we played really good but it's not going to change the opinion, the reality. But, of course, it's better to travel to Madrid with this result," added the City manager.
