Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola said that Inter will not rely solely on defense in the face of the team aspiring to win the Champions League for the first time in the final tonight. And City is the favorite to win the title that he has won so far and complete the triple titles. And some believe that Inter should stick to the defense to reduce the danger of City, hoping that he will be lucky.

But Guardiola, seeking to become the first coach to win a hat-trick of titles twice, following he led Barcelona to win the Spanish League, the King’s Cup and the Champions League in 2009, refused to limit Inter to defense.

He said in a press conference, “Inter is not a team that is used only to defend. There is a belief that Italian teams are only good at defense, but Inter is capable of doing many other things.” He continued, “(Francesco) Acerbi, (Matteo) Darmian, (Alessandro) Bastoni and (Andre) Onana are very effective in starting attacks. And all the strikers, from Lautaro (Martinez) to (Joaquin) Correa, know how to pose a danger to the opponent.” He added, “Inter has the ability to keep the ball and be decisive. He knows how to attack from the middle and from both sides. We will try to defend as best as possible.”
