Head coach of Manchester City Josep Guardiola is not tired of showering with compliments of his rivals.

Man City in the 4th round of the Champions League defeated Napoli on the road - 4: 2, although he missed first.

"Right now Napoli is the best team in the world in the game shortly. The Neapolitans showed the character when they made the score 2: 2, and although Jose Callejon had a moment, we showed the charge for the victory, "- said Guardiola.

"I understand perfectly what team we managed to beat here. I'm very pleased to watch the game of Napoli. We had a very hard time in the first half. I hope that the Neapolitan players will be healthy, because football needs such teams as Napoli ".

It should be noted that the left-back of the Italian team Fauzi Ghulam broke the cruciate ligaments of the knee in a game against the City.

On this compliment from Guardiola did not stop.

"I'm very happy, because we beat such a team!" Napoli's game is something special. In the first 20 minutes it was hard for us, but at the same time as a spectator I said: "Wow, how well they play! It's great when both teams want to attack and create moments!". When there are such moments, football is beautiful ".
