The Spaniard watched on in horror as his side went behind against Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Guardiola was a frustrated figure on the touchline as Raphael Onyedika swept in on the stroke of halftime.

The 54-year-old was agitated throughout as a City team featuring Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, and Phil Foden failed to fire.

City require three points at the Etihad to avoid an embarrassing early exit from the competition they won in 2023.

Guardiola was seen with red scratches on his forehead as he took his seat on the bench just before the break.

But Mateo Kovacic levelled early in the second half, before a Joel Ordonez own goal turned the game around.

A wound-up Guardiola was booked minutes after the leveller for remonstrating with the officials.

It’s not the first time Pep has struggled this season with a similar scratching issue.

He watched his side throw away a 3-0 lead to Feyenoord in November and cut his own nose with his fingernail.

Guardiola put the issue down to a “skin problem” after concerned fans noticed his post-game appearance.

He explained: “I have a skin problem.

“I have to take antihistamines for two, three years.

“It’s not a matter of that time [against Feyenoord].

“The nails – yes – I caught them on my nose. But the rest [of the catches] was down to [the skin problem].”

The revamped Champions League format sees an eight-game ‘Swiss model’ instead of the traditional 32-team group stage.

The top eight teams automatically qualify for the last 16 and are joined by the winners of a play-off round between those that finished ninth to 24th.

Those that finish 25th to 36th are eliminated from all European competition – teams no longer drop into the Europa League.

City must beat Brugge due to their inferior goal difference if they are to stay in Europe.

THE final night of the Champions League is HERE – and it’s win or go home for many teams.

Manchester City are one such side after a horror Champions League campaign culminated in a 4-2 capitulation against Paris Saint-Germain last week.

Yet while City needed a win to have any chance of qualification – they are now staring down the barrel of elimination.

Pep Guardiola’s side have to beat Club Brugge and then hope other results go their way.

Do Champions League teams drop into the Europa League if they don’t qualify?

In previous years, teams that struggled during the Champions League group stage always had the safety blanket of dropping down into the Europa League.

Chelsea famously became the first team to win the Champions League and Europa League in consecutive seasons in 2012 and 2013.

The Blues won in Munich under Roberto Di Matteo but six months later were dumped out of the group stage – costing Di Matteo his job – and moved into the secondary competition.

Rafa Benitez took charge and lead the team to Europa League glory in Amsterdam.

But teams won’t be able to go down that route anymore.

The expanded Champions League – which has seen an increase in teams and a dramatic change in the format – means teams will no longer drop into the Europa League.

The new 36-team format sees the top eight in the league phase qualify automatically for the last 16.

Teams that finish 9 to 24 are then entered into a draw to play a two-legged tie to make it into the last 16.

The teams that finish 25th to 36th are then ELIMINATED from ALL European competition.

A HORRIFIED dad sobbed as he recounted the moment he ran over and killed his three-year-old son with a “broken” farm vehicle, a court heard.

Little Albie suffered catastrophic head injuries in the horror at 39-year-old dad Neil Speakman’s farm in Bury, Greater Manchester.

The collision happened in a yard next to a small garden area at the front of the farmhouse in Bentley Hall Road, Walshaw.

Albie had been playing unsupervised in a small garden when he wandered into the “unfenced” area where Speakman was working.

Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court was told that Neil was driving a borrowed telehandler machine that was missing a wing mirror amid various other defects.

Speakman denies gross negligence manslaughter.

Giving evidence at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court today, Speakman told jurors that because the telehandler had a missing wing mirror he would “check profusely” for blind spots but he did not see his son.

He said: “I am always careful in what I do. He was my little boy.”

Wiping away tears, he added: “I shouldn’t have to do this. It’s f****** not fair.”

Asked to describe what happened next, he said: “You felt a bump instantly. I had travelled 10cm, 20cm…I stopped instantly. It was a split second.

“I looked right and saw his legs, and jumped off.”

Speakman told his barrister Alexander Leach KC that he was “more than competent” at driving his neighbour’s telehandler, which he said he had used “200/300 times easily”.

He said: “I looked over both shoulders a number of times, I have gone fully round, 180 degrees.

“If I thought Albie was even an inch into that yard I would never have moved that vehicle. If I thought for one second he was not on that grass I would not even have moved that stupid thing.”

He told prosecutor John Elvidge KC, cross-examining: “It was a tragic accident. I made a mistake.”

Mr Elvidge said: “Tell us what you did to stop Albie coming close to a moving vehicle before he was struck by the telehandler.”

Speakman replied: “I checked every possible blind spot. I checked he was not there. I couldn’t have checked more.

“I profusely checked. It was not humanly possible to check even more, Why would I risk my boy’s f****** safety?”

Asked why he had not put Albie inside the farmhouse, he said: “It was 33 degrees. He wanted to play outside with his dogs. It was his family home.”

Mr Elvidge said: “Is it your position that Albie aged three know to manage his own safety on the farm?”

Speakman said: “He knew dangers. I shouldn’t have left him in the garden. We all know that. Is it truly exceptional bad behaviour, neglectful behaviour? No.

“I messed up, I shouldn’t have left him there.”

‘RUINED MY LIFE’

The dad continued: “It’s one bit of human error for a split second which has ruined my life.”

Speakman said that “seconds before” the collision he had seen his son sat in the garden playing with the family dogs.

He said: “I have looked behind to the best of my ability. Not for a second would I risk his life. He is the best thing that’s ever happened…”

The prosecution alleges Speakman disregarded a warning in 2020 from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) about the use of another piece of farm machinery with a lifting bucket attached.

A letter was said to have been sent by the HSE to warn him of potentially fatal consequences after the emergence of a video posted on social media.

It showed a teenager inside the bucket in the air as the defendant moves the vehicle and is heard to say: “I’m going to drop you”.

But Speakman denied he had received any such letter and told the court the family had had problems with missing post.

Speakman has pleaded guilty to a breach of the Health and Safety at Work Act in failing to ensure, so far as reasonably practical, the health and safety of Albie.

The trial continues.

OASIS fans can bag themselves some classic memorabilia before this year’s tour — as one of Liam Gallagher’s old cars goes up for sale.

The rocker bought the Bristol 603 for £20,000 in 1996 when he was dating actress Patsy Kensit.

The silver car — one of only 65 of its kind made — is now up for sale for £42,500.

Liam, 52, could not drive so he employed a chauffeur for him and his wife-to-be.

Patsy, 56, who was a child actor and starred in 1974 film The Great Gatsby, married Liam in 1997. They had one son, ­Lennon, and divorced in 2000.

The Bristol 603, complete with leather upholstery and a powerful 5.9L V8 engine, and built in 1981, is in immaculate condition.

Seller SLJ Hackett, in Warminster, Wilts, said: “The car will sit at 100mph with the engine only turning over at 3,300rpm so it is a supremely relaxed cruiser on long journeys at legal speeds!”

Experts say the cars are an alternative to Bentleys and Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson and U2’s Bono have owned one.

Classic car salesman Richard Hackett, 78, said: “This is a great car of its kind and it will definitely sell.

“But the connection with Liam Gallagher gives it that added attraction.

“Personally, I’m more of a Buddy Holly and Little Richard fan, stuff from the 1950s.

“That’s my era rather than the 1990s but I know that Oasis are very popular, especially this year.

“This car would be a great buy for someone who is a fan of both Oasis and classic cars.”

Liam owned the car in the 1990s, when Oasis were one of the biggest bands in the world following a string of top-selling albums and singles.

After this year’s comeback tour there will be no motor the frontman cannot afford, as he and Noel are expected to pocket £50million each from 41 sell-out shows around the world.

The Gallagher brothers’ tour kicks off on July 4 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.

MUCKING out the stables in my wellies, without a scrap of make-up on, it is hard to believe I was once a top lads’ mag model.

And while posing for publications like Playboy and Zoo in the Noughties was great fun, it came at a price.

Desperate to look like Keeley Hazell and Lucy Pinder — the glamour industry’s big stars of the day — I spent £80,000 on fillers, breast implants, Botox, veneers, hair extensions and treatments.

There was barely a cosmetic procedure I didn’t try.

But after 20 years of being “fake”, all traces of cosmetic enhancements have been banished from my face and body.

I’ve had my fillers dissolved and even had corrective surgery on my face to reverse years of tweakments.

I’ve even ditched the eyelash extensions and make-up.

Now, at the age of 40, I love my new, natural look and I was glad to hear of Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry’s decision to have her cosmetic surgery reversed.

Chloe, 29, is believed to have spent up to £50,000 on nose jobs, breast implants, fillers, eyebrow lifts, botox and liposuction.

This week she thanked fans for their support as she went to hospital to embark on “a journey to correct my previous work”, starting with having her Brazilian bum lift reversed.

She explained that while she had hoped cosmetic surgery would solve all her problems, it only added to them, sparking depression, anxiety and physical discomfort.

It ultimately left her feeling much worse about herself.

Such honesty from a powerful influencer like Chloe is a breath of fresh air.

Realising that cosmetic tweak after tweak won’t make you happy is a hard reality to accept.

But once you get there — like I did — it frees you.

You accept yourself for who you are and what you really look like.

In my modelling heyday, I felt I HAD to look a certain way.

Big boobs were important, thanks to stars like Katie Price and Pamela ­Anderson.

Fake breasts brought you more work and heftier paychecks.

Later, when a wave of younger models came along, I found myself battling against my ageing face with Botox and fillers.

I felt I had to fight to stay glamorous.

How times have changed.

These days you’ll find me at home in the lovely Bedfordshire countryside with my partner, surrounded by my beloved horses and blissfully content with my new life as a horse-trainer and show-jumper.

But I worry about young girls getting their lips plumped up to the size of baboons’ bums, to look like every­one else on TikTok.

The saddest thing is, these girls aren’t even out having fun like me and my fellow glamour models were in the Noughties.

We were out dancing with pals, celebrating our glamorous looks.

And we embraced our differences, each with our own individual style and personality.

Now girls seem to spend every spare penny on fillers and Botox instead of going out with their mates.

They are on their own in their bedrooms, contouring away like it’s an art form.

Taking selfie after selfie and ­filtering the hell out of their snaps until they are “perfect” enough to post online.

Social media and reality TV stars like the Kardashians have not helped with the trend.

‘PAINFUL AND EXPENSIVE’

I wasn’t the slightest bit surpris­ed to hear that, according to a recent government report, 36 per cent of adolescents would do “whatever it takes” to look good.

No wonder it’s affecting their mental health.

It’s brilliant Chloe has realised enough is enough, but rev­er­sing cosmetic work is painful and expensive.

My boob jobs, Botox and fillers helped me carve out a successful glamour modelling career.

I ­was earning £4,000 a week doing practically nothing.

Posing for lads’ mag photos is pretty easy.

My career catapulted when I got a boob job on finance, going from a 28B to 30DD when I was 18.

Soon after, I was scouted by a glamour model photographer at a car show in Birmingham.

That says it all, doesn’t it?

Playboy soon came knocking at my door.

But my youthful looks and big boobs weren’t enough when I reached my late twenties.

I needed to keep up with the younger models.

I noticed lines and wrinkles, so I had my cupid’s bow and forehead Botoxed and it spiralled from there.

In my twenties and thirties I had so many tweakments I lost track.

I spent around £16,000 on cheek and lip fillers, £10,000 on Botox, £4,500 on veneers and £10,000 on hair extensions.

I had four boob jobs in total, costing £4,500 each and taking me from a natural 28B to a huge 32FF.

I can remember how amazing I felt, at first.

I finally had this incredible cleavage and looked fabulous in swimwear.

With my long, blonde hair extensions, it was like I’d arrived into womanhood.

Sadly, women don’t realise the toll fillers take.

Your skin gets stretched over time and as your collagen levels naturally fall with age, it does not bounce back when you have the fillers dissolved.

I recently read that there’s been a 27 per cent drop in people getting fillers and I constantly hear of women having theirs dissolved.

It’s a step in the right direction.

I just hope Chloe’s skin is young and elastic enough to repair itself if she dissolves hers.

I wasn’t so lucky.

When I had mine dissolved in 2020, my face became so sunken and saggy I had a mini facelift.

It cost £10,000 and I had intense headaches afterwards and will have the scars for ever.

Fortunately, my sister is trained in aesthetic procedures and dissolved my fillers for me, saving me around £1,000.

It is also more painful than having fillers and I had a lot of bruising and swelling.

Having my breast implants removed cost around £6,000.

I saw a very kind surgeon in Belgium, but I know it can be up to £16,000 for people in the UK.

Now, I urge women to think twice before getting procedures.

It won’t make you happy.

My enhancements made me rich, but I wish I’d known the joy of being at peace with how I really look — like I do now.

My happy place is in my tracksuit and wellies, not the surgeon’s clinic.
