      Bayern Munich players prepare for the Champions League semi-finals a day after the big 2: 8 over Barcelona (Bayern Munich's Twitter account)

      Pep Guardiola has won a ton of titles, wherever he has gone. Championships, trophies, plates and so many victories were the lot of the Catalan who is considered by many to be the best coach in the world. Tonight (Saturday through Sunday), he also tastes the bitter taste of the review. And it's especially spicy.

      After the 3: 1, Raheem Sterling continued to look unbelievable following his huge miss that could have set up 2: 2, while other players cried and Gabriel Jesus had a hard time consoling himself. The team's fans flooded the nets with harsh allegations about the coach's game management and they were not the only ones.

      "A day will come and we will break this barrier of the semi-final," Guardiola said at the end, "in the first 20-25 minutes we had a hard time finding intervals on offense. The second half was fine - we were in the game and I felt we were better. But in this factory you have to be perfect to achieve ".

      Guardiola also referred to Sterling's huge miss: "In situations like this you have to equalize and send the game into extra time, but we missed and immediately afterwards absorbed the third."

      Despite the big investment - Guardiola fails to get through the quarter-final stage with Manchester City. On 17/18 he was relegated by Liverpool, on 18/19 he was painfully relegated by Tottenham, and on 19/20 he lost to Lyon. Before that, on 16/17 with City he was eliminated already in the eighth, and in the three years with Bayern Munich before that he was eliminated three times in a row in the semifinals. It is estimated that during this period his teams invested almost £ 1 billion in acquisition players - of which £ 750 million in City alone. Or as the gambling house Paddy Power tweeted, "If Pep had passed last season with a big European team, he would have been fired the night before he arrives at the hotel. But he can sleep soundly."

      Legendary Chris Woodel said: "Manchester City were not creative enough, they did not have enough players going forward, enough players to cause Lyon problems. She did not cause her opponent enough problems, I missed David Silva and Phil Foden tonight. I think Pep Guardiola should Raise your hand and admit that he was wrong. "

      Chelsea and former Scotland international Pat Nevin added: "Already after about 20 minutes we saw that Pep's line-up and line-up were not working. He made a change after 60 minutes, so he actually threw in the bin 60 minutes that City had to control. Too bad Guardiola "He reacted today. He usually wants his teams to hold the ball, but today City played very bland football."

      Julian Lawrence, the BBC's French football expert, said: "Lyon has benefited from Pep's crazy tactics. It is impossible to take away from Lyon's achievement, but I feel it is mostly Guardiola's failure, he is registered in his name. He has destroyed his tactics, his order "How did Phil Foden, who was perhaps the best player against Real Madrid, not play?"

      Kevin de Bruyne said: "Another year, the same story. The first half was not good, we started badly, but in the second we played well, we equalized, we had chances, but then they won twice and the game was over, very unfortunate for us to be relegated like that

      " In the second half we played Well, we pressed them, we got into situations, and even at 1: 2 if Sterling wins it's 2: 2 and the game goes on, but it's football. The game was open, they did not create many situations, but we must learn. It's not good enough, and that's it. Now is the time to go home, it's been a long season, my wife is due to give birth, so I personally have something to look forward to, but yes, it's hard. "
