Pep Guardiola preferred to look on the bright side of Manchester City’s 3-3 Champions League draw.
The man who has managed Barcelona, Bayern Munich knows his way around the map and recognises that it was a point gained rather than two lost for the Premier League leaders.
City trailed the hoops three times during the match but were never on the ropes for long in a match that thrilled millions across the globe.
AC Milan, Manchester United, Juventus, Benfica and Lyon have all lost at Celtic Park with Pep realistic about the outcome of 90 incredible minutes.
“It was a fantastic game for the spectators. We scored three goals away and didn’t win,” the City boss said. “We gave three goals but created three of four more clear chances.
“It was an amazing effort to recover from that situation in this stadium against a team who had lost three of their last 24 games here (in Champions League group stages).
“It was maybe a good lesson for us, how important it is to start well. It is not easy to recover one goal, imagine two, imagine three.
“It was mentally a shock at the start of each half, to concede a goal after two minutes. In the second half, aside from the first five or 10 minutes we played well, we created chances.
“They scored three and but didn’t make many more chances, we created enough chances to win the game.”
