Story summary

Pep Guardiola returned to Manchester City's Etihad Stadium for the first time since being found guilty of breaching financial rules. He attended a UEFA Champions League match against PSG in a show of support for his former club. The stadium displayed defiant messages, and fans booed during the Premier League anthem before a home game against Ipswich. Guardiola clutched his face in anguish when a goal-scoring opportunity was missed by Manchester City, showing his continued engagement despite no longer being the manager. City's chairman and chief executive received public backing from Guardiola amidst ongoing appeals to overturn the guilty verdict. The booing of pre-match anthems became a fixture reflecting fan discontent over financial regulations and perceived unfairness. Overall, Manchester City has been displaying unity against adversity through defiant actions post-guilty verdict findings.
