Pep Guardiola is very happy with Julián Alvarez' performances

He made his first appearance as a starter against Copenhagen in the Champions League and scored his first goal in the competition. The great night that the Araña had at the Etihad Stadium caused several users on social media to recall an old post published by the player, which demonstrates his love for the Champions League.
