Shenzhen (China): Pep Guardiola got his first taste of victory as Manchester City's manager yesterday after beating Borussia Dortmund 6-5 on penalties in a friendly, but expressed concern about the looming English Premier League season.

"Football today is tough," said Guardiola, whose side beat their German opposition in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen.


"Today you don't have time to rest. I don't know if we are going to kill our players but the schedule is the schedule. We start in two weeks. But I saw what I wanted to see tonight — we are aggressive and we want the ball."

City won — and finally got the workout Guardiola had craved — thanks to a 6-5 penalty shootout win over Dortmund, after the game ended one apiece.
