Guardiola said at his post-match press conference,
“With Erling [Haaland] you have something special and Julian is something special as well. The vision to have the second one, play that position to Riyad, he was important for the first three goals.”
He added,
“With the ball he was so clever and so intelligent, he played with the national team, world champions, if you are not good you cannot play in a world champion team.

“He has a lot of personalities, alongside Rodri and Ruben [Dias] and Nathan [Ake] help a lot. He played really good.”
