Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola is now the first football manager to win the UEFA Super Cup with three different teams after the Citizens defeated Sevilla on Wednesday night.

Guardiola won his 4th European Super Cup, equalling Carlo Ancelotti as manager with most titles in this competition.

The Spaniard watched as Manchester City beat Sevilla 5-4 via penalty shoot-out at the Karaiskakis Stadium.

The match ended in a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes, thanks to goals from Youssef En-Nesyri and Cole Palmer.

Man City’s victory over Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup means Guardiola has now won the trophy with the Premier League champions, Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

Guardiola led City to become the second English club to win the treble after city rival Manchester United achieved the feat in 1999.

After topping Arsenal to win the Premier League, City pipped United 2-1 in the FA Cup final before defeating Inter Milan 1-0 in the UEFA Champions League final.

Guardiola is widely regarded as one of the best managers in the present generation.
