Neither of those victorious sides were favourites for the crown and the Portuguese believes United are outsiders this time. "But when a team reaches the last eight, anything is possible".
Guardiola, famed for developing world-class players like Sergio Busquets, Gerard Pique, and one Argentine genius by the name of Messi, has promoted. I know that it is very hard to go through.
