During the back press conference to the defeat of the Bayern Munich in Vicente Calderón against the Athletic of Madrid (1-0), in the corresponding party to the gone of semifinals of the UEFA Champions League, Pep Guardiola tried to look for explanation to the defeat of the Bavarian group and, in addition to offering something of self-criticism, also spoke of the errors committed by his players.

In any case, there was a moment in which it produced a curious anecdote. A journalist asked in German how influenced the very marked that was Xabi Alonso by the players of the Athletic in the game of the Bayern Munich. Until here all normal, if it was not because, in the translation of the question to the Spanish, the interpreter confused the name of Xabi Alonso with Leo Messi.

The lapsus of the translator caused the laughs of some present journalists in the room and the surprise of Pep Guardiola that reacted fast and of way avispada: "it Had been well", it smiled the one of Santpedor. Further of the anecdote, Guardiola regretted the first chamber of hour of party, in which the Bayern Munich did not go out all the concentrated that it had to be.

"We had to have been more intense in the first minutes because the parties here are it and a lot. The circulation of the balloon has been slow because the lawn always is high, but after the goal have us serenado and in the second part already have been better and have goazado of a lot of occasions to mark at least a goal", signalled Pep.

In this sense, the Bavarians will try to trace back with head the adverse result in the party of turn. "We will try not attacking as against the Madrid. We wanted to trace back in five minutes and to the twenty the eliminatory already was sentenced (in favour of the Madrid). We will have to look for solutions: be more stable, not receiving counterattacks and craer sufficient occasions of goal".
