Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola admitted his treble-chasing side were in “big trouble” after picking up injuries in the Champions League.

A 0-0 second leg draw in a fiery clash away to Atletico Madrid secured a 1-0 aggregate win and sent the Premier League leaders into the semi-finals.

Their injury concerns will initially be seen in the context of their FA Cup semi-final clash with title rivals Liverpool at the weekend.

But Albion fans will also be keeping an eye on the state of play with City given their team go to the Etihad next Wednesday when league action resumes.

City saw Kevin De Bruyne and Kyle Walker both go off with injuries at the Wanda Metrropolitano and Phil Foden left the pitch heavily bandaged.

“We are in big trouble,” Guardiola told BT Sport.

“We cannot forget we played three days ago a tough game against Liverpool.

"We came here, we have a lot of injuries.

"I don’t know what will happen in the next weeks but today we are going to celebrate.

“It is the third time in Manchester City’s history we are in the semi-finals of the Champions League and it is a big success for us to be there.”

Guardiola did not mention how severe the injuries were, while he also claimed he had “nothing to say” on the ugly scenes which marred his side’s progression on Wednesday night.

The match ended in rancour and bitterness with scuffles on the field and in the tunnel.
