Guardiola celebrates 1000th match with dominant 3-0 win over Liverpool!

Pep Guardiola marked his 1000th career match as manager with statement victory guiding Manchester City to commanding 3-0 win over Liverpool on Sunday in matchweek 11 of the Premier League 2025 /26.

"Don’t overrate me — the players deserve it"

Speaking to the BBC after the match, the Spanish tactician said:

Guardiola whose career has spanned Barcelona, Bayern Munich & City, reached his 1000th game as coach in typically self-effacing style using the moment to celebrate his squad’s commitment.

Doku dazzles as City dominate

Asked about Jeremy Doku’s breathtaking performance — which saw the Belgian winger torment Liverpool’s backline throughout — Guardiola laughed off the idea that he had taught the youngster his trademark dribbling skills:

Doku’s flair and directness were key to City’s dominance as goals from Phil Foden, Erling Haaland and own goal sealed comfortable win at the Etihad Stadium.

A milestone to remember

Title race tightens

With this result, Manchester City moved to 22 point, level with Arsenal but trailing the league leaders only on goal difference.
