lives a plethoric moment.

Although Pep Guardiola takes refuge in the fact that his team has not yet won anything, the truth is that he has concrete chances of achieving the treble that only Manchester United achieved in the history of England, in 1999: he is also a semifinalist in the Champions League and has chances concrete in the Premier League.

In the preview of the game, Guardiola assured that they are still "very far" from the treble and that he is not thinking about it.

"We are eleven games away, yes, that is, very far. I have said it many times, how many times has it been achieved in this country? Only once and our neighbors did it," he recalled.

And he was blunt when asked if they were thinking about it and getting excited: "No, not at all."

For its part, Sheffield is also going through a great moment, with second place in the Championship and serious chances of returning to the Premier League.

In the FA Cup they beat Millwall, Wrexham, Tottenham and Blackburn Rovers.

In the other semifinal, which will be played on Sunday at Wembley, are Manchester United and world champion Alexis Mac Allister's Brighton.
