Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola revealed his pre-match words for their FA Cup semifinal win against Chelsea.

City went into the game after Champions League elimination by Real Madrid in midweek.

After the Wembley triumph, Guardiola said: I said 'don't fight against your feelings'.

You are disappointed, it's fine. Don't pretend to be happy all the time.

You are sad? I'm sad. Once we are here, do you best. They did it.

In the condition we travel to London to play against Chelsea in their best moment of the season and against these players with this pace and do what we have done today, what a season we have done.

Football is defined like this. Manu arrived in the byline cross, Kevin up, Bernardo goal. Define one season in these details.

We could lose today, Chelsea had a lot of chances I am not going to deny that. We had, too. But they did. The coin comes.

I am going to define going out of the Champions League quarter-final with these guys? After winning the Treble, to still come here?"
