Video of Pep Guardiola’s fervent halftime team speech from Manchester City’s 1-0 victory over Newcastle on Saturday has been made public.

Although City kept their perfect record, they struggled against Eddie Howe’s team as Julian Alvarez’s goal in the first half turned out to be the game’s lone score.

The assist was given by Phil Foden, who also earned the honor of being named man of the match for his impressive play.

Guardiola wanted to remind his team of their victories in difficult games last season, despite the fact that they had a lead at the break.

He said, “You see these pictures here behind me?” in reference to a photo of the team’s Champions League victory from last season in the club’s behind-the-scenes video. Here, we were so powerful.

We know what needs to be done in relation to Manchester United and Inter Milan. Here, it is the second game. Continue the game.

He was referring to City’s two finals from last season, in which they won the FA Cup by a score of 2-1 over their local rivals and the UCL in Istanbul a week later.

The boss smacked Foden on the chest and gave him some positional advice before sending his side back on. He then reminded his men to once again be “strong.”

Even though they weren’t at their best, they managed to hang on in a difficult second half to earn the three points.

Guardiola’s team talk, which compared playing the Magpies to two of City’s most crucial games from the previous season, demonstrates how highly he regards the Magpies.

In the third game of the previous campaign, they drew 3-3 with Newcastle before defeating them 2-0 in the rematch in March.

With Brighton and Arsenal the other two clubs to win their first two games, City is now second in the league.

On Sunday, they play their next game at Sheffield United, which recently received promotion.
