He praised the performance of Jeremy Doku, who had a standout game and gained valuable experience playing at the Bernabeu.

Guardiola emphasized that winning at the Bernabeu is a significant achievement, but it is not enough to guarantee success in the competition.

He noted that City still has room for improvement and that they will need to perform better in future matches to reach the semi-finals or finals.

Guardiola expressed confidence that the team will learn from this experience and improve in the coming months, particularly with the return of key players who were absent from the match.

He also highlighted the importance of gaining experience and learning from playing against top-level opponents like Real Madrid.
