\nPep Guardiola says his Manchester City \u201cwant more\u201d as they marched into the Champions League semi-finals with the Premier League leaders on course to win four titles this season.
\nPhil Foden\u2019s second-half winner at Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday sealed a 2-1 away win in the quarter-final, second leg to claim a 4-2 aggregate victory and set up a semi-final clash with Paris Saint Germain.
\nGuardiola\u2019s side stay on course for a historic quadruple of Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup.
\nThey also ended their miserable run of exiting at the quarter-final stage in each of the three seasons to make the Champions League semis at the fifth time of asking under Guardiola.
\n\u201cI am incredibly happy for this club, for this chairman and for the fans, everyone,\u201d he said.
\n\u201cFor all of us, it was necessary to get to the semi-finals and now we want more.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s time to celebrate and drink a lot of wine, then prepare to face Chelsea (in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday).
\n\u201cWe need three victories to be Premier League champions, so it\u2019s important to keep going in this way.\u201d
\nGuardiola also heaped praise on City\u2019s match-winner Foden, who had also netted a 90th-minute goal in the first leg last week to seal a 2-1 home win.
\n\u201cThe second goal from Phil in Manchester was crucial,\u201d said Guardiola.
\n\u201cYou had the feeling he is a guy who never hides and he always creates something, he scored two important goals to help us reach the semi-finals.\u201d
\nCity\u2019s man-of-the-match Ilkay Gundogan said his side had showed character to come from behind.
\nEngland midfielder Jude Bellingham gave Dortmund an early lead, but a second-half Riyad Mahrez penalty and Foden\u2019s powerful strike moved City into the last four of Europe\u2019s top club competition for the second time.
\n\u201cIt means a lot to be honest, this club and this team deserve it,\u201d Gundogan told BT Sport.
\n\u201cToday once again we showed character, we didn\u2019t play well at all in the first 15 minutes, we struggled and we weren\u2019t brave enough and were scared to lose something. That was obvious.
\n\u201cAfter conceding the first goal we were able to get hold of possession and create chances.
\n\u201cOur target was to score the first goal of the second half and get the game back into our hands.
\n\u201cThat\u2019s exactly what we did.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
