‘When Barcelona have the ball they are extremely strong’
Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola is now backing his former club Barcelona to win the Champions League after his Bavarian giants bowed out 5-3 on aggregate in the semi-finals.
Barcelona's Neymar struck twice to put the Spanish side in the Champions League final despite a 3-2 loss at Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
Barcelona, into an eighth European Cup final, will make their first appearance since 2011, when they won the trophy under Guardiola.
"When Barca have the ball they are extremely strong. I hope in Berlin they can win the fifth European Cup," said former Barcelona player Guardiola, who has failed to reach the final with Bayern in his two seasons in charge.
