MANCHESTER.- Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola claimed his focus is on their two-legged Champions League soccer quarter-final tie with Liverpool even though they could be crowned English Premier League champions against Manchester United.

City eased to a 3-1 win over Everton on Saturday courtesy of goals from Leroy Sane, Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling and were good value for their victory even though Yannick Bolasie pulled a goal back for the Toffees.

City’s focus will now switch to the first leg of their Champions League tie against Liverpool on Wednesday night before a mouthwatering opportunity to wrap up the title against the Red Devils at the Etihad Stadium.And Guardiola preferred to look at the bigger picture and refused to indulge in what it would mean to beat United to clinch the league. “I understand people are going to talk about United but now all the decisions are about Liverpool,” Guardiola said. – AFP
