Social media talks over Guardiola’s facial wounds – His interpretation

Pep Guardiola addresses speculations about his wounds as Manchester City fails to secure a win

Newsroom November 27 10:26

Manchester City fumbled their lead against Feyenoord during the 5th matchday of the Champions League, blowing a three-goal advantage in just 14 minutes and marking yet another negative milestone in Pep Guardiola’s coaching career.

The Catalan coach’s appearance at the post-match press conference—with a scratched head and a visibly injured nose—prompted a journalist to ask about the cause of his wounds.

“I did it with my finger and nail, yes, I want to hurt myself,” Guardiola replied before standing up, smiling, and bidding the reporters goodnight.

Despite his lighthearted explanation, rumors quickly spread on social media. Fans speculated that after five consecutive defeats and a draw, some sort of altercation may have taken place in the locker room.
