Pep Guardiola text Rio Ferdinand with bold prediction ahead of UCL semi-final win

The European champions could not lay a glove on their opponents, who cruised into a two-goal lead with Bernardo Silva netting both in the first-half. After the break, they did not relent as Eder Militao scored an own goal from a Kevin de Bruyne free-kick before Julian Alvarez scored the fourth late on.
City went into the match as slight favourites but it would have been a surprise to thrash a Madrid side full of Champions League know-how with such ease.Speaking on BT Sport, Ferdinand said: “Pep Guardiola texted me before the game, I said ‘good luck’, and he texted me, ‘believe me, we beat them two years ago, we will beat them again. Believe’.
