(Reuters) - Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola said Oleksandr Zinchenko is ready to play in the return leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Sporting, and that the Ukraine international could be called upon to fill in a depleted backline.
Pep Guardiola says he is still “so angry” with Kyle Walker after he was banned for three matches following a red card in Manchester City’s final Champions League group game in December. Walker was shown a straight red for a kick on RB Leipzig forward Andre Silva, with City already having qualified for the knockout stages. Ad/> UEFA deemed the foul to be «assault» which resulted in a three-match suspension, and City saw an appeal rejected last month.
