Pep Guardiola says his side must be focused ahead of the second leg of their UEFA Champions League clash against Manchester City next week.
City turned on the style with a dominant second half display to beat PSG 2-1 in their semifinal tie at Parc des Princes.
Guardiola however insists that the job is not yet done as he called for focus ahead of the reverse fixture even as he revealed the catalyst for City’s sparkling second half performance on Wednesday.
“Sometimes you need to be more relaxed, a little bit more yourself,” Guardiola told BT Sport. “In the first half, it was normal. There are 180 minutes and you don’t want to lose the ball, you don’t play free.
“We changed a little bit the way we press, we were more aggressive as the first 20 minutes we were so passive. “The last 10-15 minutes of the first half, then into the second half, we were more aggressive – and it is not easy to be that way with [Kylian] Mbappe, Neymar and [Angel] Di Maria, but we found the goals and could have scored another one.
“In general, I’m so satisfied for the performance. But this is halfway. We still have many more minutes to beat them, and PSG is a team where anything can happen.”
City have now won their past 18 away matches in all competitions, scoring 46 goals during the run while conceding just nine.
PSG have won in Manchester once already this season – they triumphed 3-1 against City’s neighbours United in the group stages in December.
