Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, says his team wants more than the semifinals of the Champions League after last night’s victory over Borussia Dortmund.

Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden sent the Citizens into their first semi-finals of the competition under Guardiola after three consecutive failed attempts at the last eight.

The qualification would be City’s second in the history of the competition but Guardiola played down the fact that the first semis under his five-year reign at the club is historic.

17-year-old Jude Bellingham almost spoilt the party for the visitors with his 15th minute opener for the BVB but a penalty as a result of an unfortunate handball from Emre Can gifted City the boost to overturn the game.

Foden nicked the winner as he did in the first leg to eliminate Dortmund 4-2 on aggregate.

Talking of the Foden moment after the game, Guardiola told BT Sport, “It feels incredible. This is the second time we have got to the semi-finals, so there is not much history for our club here, but we will start to build it.

“We were brilliant except for the first 10 minutes. We’re going to try and play a good game [against PSG].

“Semi-final, Champions League. For the second time in our history we are there with the real elite of Europe. Now, I don’t want to think for one second about PSG. I want to celebrate. Dinner with the staff and the team. I don’t know which wine, it will be with wine for sure.

“It is a good moment for all of us, especially the players. We cannot forget, in the five years we are together, we have gone out of the Champions League four times.

“The players suffer the same as the backroom staff and all the people working in the club. They are huge competitors, and they want to make the next step – and they did.”

On clearing a psychological hurdle of reaching the last four, Guardiola added: “For the club it is so important, we cannot deny it.

“This competition is tough. You work for 10 months and you are judged for one game. You go out and your season is judged a failure, a disaster club. This is not fair. We cannot judge what these guys have done in four or five years.

“But saying that, psychologically, for all of us – the players, myself, the backroom staff, my chairman, CEO, to pass this moment of the quarter-finals to get to the semi-finals was necessary.

“Now, of course, we want more.
