Pep Guardiola revealed that Erling Haaland struggled during the leg of the Champions League semi-final owing to the fact that the spaces that Haaland do operate in were not available to him, thereby making it difficult for him to get involved in the game.
However, Guardiola also acknowledged that Haaland moved well and had his chances, pointing out that he was still able to create opportunities despite the challenging circumstances. Ultimately, the tie remains finely balanced heading into the second leg, and both teams will need to perform at their best if they hope to progress to the final.
