Erling Haaland was a key player in the 3-0 victory, scoring two goals and making six defensive clearances.

Guardiola praised Haaland's commitment and skills, saying, "Erling has the commitment, that is why he signed a contract for many years. He's a special player."

The manager also commended Abdukodir Khusanov for his performance at right-back, highlighting his physicality, speed, and ability to close down opponents effectively.

Guardiola noted that Khusanov sometimes makes energetic decisions that don't quite work out, but overall, he was pleased with the player's display.
