INER MILAN STAR Andre Onana believes the pressure is all on Manchester City in Saturday’s Champions League final – but you wouldn’t think it looking at them.
Guardiola’s outfit showed no signs of being daunted as they touched down in Istanbul.
Pictured stepping down off of the plane, Guardiola cast a beaming smile after being handed a bouquet of flowers.
His stars, who followed an all-white polo shirt and blue jeans dress code, followed closely behind.
For them it is a chance to complete history and win the Treble after winning the Premier League and beating Manchester United in the FA Cup final.
They can also correct the record by going one better than the 2021 final, when they fell to a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.

Inter Milan goalkeeper Onana has no fear of facing Erling Haaland & Co — or a penalty shootout in Istanbul and says history is on the Italian’s side.
The three-time winners are the underdogs in most people’s eyes and those within Simone Inzaghi’s squad know they are facing an incredible side.
But Onana feels that could work in their favour, saying: “Why would I not be relaxed? I am calm.
“I’ve no pressure, we have no pressure at all.

“We know it is not going to be easy but we will be there. They have more pressure than us, I am calm.
“We are a big club so there is a lot of expectation. When Inter arrive in a final they have to win.
“When you look that way, we are not the underdogs because the history speaks for us.”
Asked how he feels about the prospect of facing 52-goal Haaland, Onana added: “Very good. It is football.
“In this life I am only afraid of God and I don’t see him on the pitch. Men are men.
“They are probably the best team in the world but they have to show this on Saturday.
“We’ll be there to defend and represent Inter, to make history. It is not going to be easy but they have to show they are the best on Saturday.”
Inzaghi’s side are robust at the back and will look to cause City problems on the break.
If they can keep them out and take the game to extra time and penalties, Onana insists he’is ready to face spot-kicks.

He added: “Penalties? Very good. I am very good. For me I am not afraid to face anyone, not only City.
“We are all big players and know how to play finals. We will be there, it will be tough for us but also for them as well.”
