'We didn't make a song and dance!' - Warnock renews war of words with Guardiola

The Cardiff City boss was unimpressed with the Catalan's reaction to their meeting in the FA Cup last season and has told him so

Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock has attempted to kickstart a war of words with Pep Guardiola ahead of Manchester City's trip to Wales, criticising the Catalan's reaction to his side's robust tackling in last season's FA Cup clash.

Guardiola was left fuming after Leroy Sane was injured during the encounter, following a scything tackle from Joe Bennett.

The Germany international was ruled out for two weeks, and the former Barcelona manager used his post-match interview to call on referees to offer greater protection to his players.
