The Spanish coach was seen showing displeasure as he watched his Brazilian goalkeeper try to handle an extremely risky ball while under pressure from an attacking player right at home yard.
At that time, the score was 1-1, after Julian Alvarez scored the equalizer for Man City in the 47th minute.
However, despite Guardiola’s reputation for encouraging his players to take risks when holding the ball, Ederson’s previous mistakes clearly made him sweat.
Fortunately, Ederson’s bold handling was not a problem as Man City eventually came back to win 3-1 against Crvena Zvezda thanks to Julian Alvarez’s second-half double and Rodri’s goal.
In the next match in the Champions League group stage, The Citizens will face RB Leipzig.
