Pep Guardiola is the second-most successful manager EVER after Man City's UEFA Super Cup glory... but needs another 13 trophies to catch Sir Alex Ferguson

Pep Guardiola moved to outright second on the all-time most successful managers list after Manchester City's penalty win over Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday.

Sevilla's Nemanja Gudelj hit his crucial spot-kick against the crossbar in Athens to give Guardiola's side the trophy - his 36th title across spells with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Man City.

However, the Spanish mastermind will have to win 13 more trophies to catch up with Sir Alex Ferguson's impressive haul of 49 successful tournaments during his long tenure as one of the world's best managers.
