At the news conference after the match, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded.
When Pellegrini implied that while the team's first-half performance was excellent, the reason they conceded two goals in the second half was due to someone in the dressing room not supporting his tactics.
Guardiola's intervention made things suddenly interesting.
In this match, there is no doubt that Guardiola's performance was more outstanding, especially since most media favored Real Madrid before the match.
However, in this match, Guardiola was full of innovative spirit and made targeted formations, earning him media praise, even though he didn't win the match compared to Pellegrini's conservatism.
Guardiola fielded three players in the starting lineup who had never participated in a National Derby before: left-back Maxwell, the miraculous Pedro, and the "new Puyol," Ziglinsky, which was certainly unexpected.
