FIFA Club World Cup final
Hours before the final commenced in the evening, Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City coach had an interview.
"Good evening coach, your team will be playing against the underdogs from Africa in just a few hours, how do you feel about the game?"
"I'd feel better if the heat was not so scorching". He flashed a smile, wiping the sweat off his face.
The reporter laughed. "It's an Eastern thing, you have to get used to it in Saudi Arabia".
"So I heard".
"It's hotter in Africa though where those boys come from".
Pep Guardiola smiled. "So I heard too".
This coach rubbed his bald head. "First of all, I'd say don't call them underdogs. They're not underdogs after going through Al-Ittihad and Fluminense in such fashion, seeing them as underdogs after all that is just foolish at this point".
"I and my team will approach this game like every other game".
