Guardiola calls Barca 'best team in the world' ahead of CL clash against Bayern

Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola has termed his former club Barcelona as the 'best team in the world', after both the teams were being drawn against each other for the high-octane Champions League semifinal clash.

Guardiola, who left the Catalan giants in 2012 after a four-year successful stint, will make an emotional return to his hometown on May 6 in the first-leg of the game.

Heaping praise on his former club, Guardiola said that Barcelona are the best team in the world at the moment, adding that they have to analyse what they could do in each game, the Mirror reported.

The Spaniard further said that they want to beat quality team like Barcelona, insisting that it would be the first time that he has gone back, and therefore it is going to be special and emotional for him.
