Guardiola clarifies comments about scratched nose during press conference

After Manchester City's disappointing match against Feyenoord, head coach Pep Guardiola appeared in public with a scratch on his nose, sparking curiosity. His explanation during the press conference—claiming he scratched himself—raised even more eyebrows, prompting the Spanish manager to provide further clarification on social media.

Details: Guardiola stated that the question caught him off guard, and his response was not intended to address the sensitive issue of self-harm.

Quote: "I was caught off guard with a question at the end of a press conference last night about a scratch which had appeared on my face, and explained that a sharp fingernail had accidentally caused this.

My answer was in no way intended to make light of the very serious issue of self harm. I know that many people struggle with mental health issues every day, and I would like to take this moment to highlight one of the ways in people can seek help." Guardiola said in his statement.
