Pep Guardiola Says Manchester City Must 'Stand Up and React,' Focus on EPL Title

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has called on his side to turn their focus to the Premier League title after their dramatic exit from the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

The Sky Blues beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-3 at the Etihad Stadium, but having lost the first leg 1-0 they went out of the quarter-finals on away goals.

Per ESPN FC's Jonathan Smith, Guardiola said:

"We have to stand up and react. It is a close time and the same team. Now it's time to think not too much now.
