Guardiola - victory was about "life and death"

[Hamilton Saint]

According to BBC Football yesterday:

 

"Bayern Munich's progress to the semi-finals of the Champions League was 'about life or death', according to manager Pep Guardiola."

 

Well, not bad. But, of course, Bill Shankly - as we know -outdid him in the hyperbole department: "Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that."
