Guardiola said Manchester United are a team built to run

The rival sides, Manchester United and Manchester City meet in the first leg of their Carabao semi-final match at Old Trafford on Tuesday January 7.

Guardiola said Manchester United are a team built to run. “When they can run they are one of the best teams, and not just in England… because of pace” with the likes of Daniel James, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard.

When the rival sides met on December 7, United tore the defense of City apart and won the match 2:1 with goals from Rashford and Martial.

Previewing Tuesday’s meeting the City boss said “I am not going to prepare our game just thinking, ‘don’t let them run’,” he added.

“We have to go there and try to score a goal, play our game and try to get a good result from there.
