  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The City boss put his players' reflexes to the test by having them clap every time he bounced a ball off off the ground. If they clapped when he faked the bounce, they were eliminated. Grealish seemed to exceed the coach's expectations, though, by staying in the game for a few rounds.

  • WHAT GUARDIOLA SAID TO GREALISH

    Jack, you are here?!" Guardiola said with some surprise after many of his team-mates had been eliminated.

    "Brainy," Grealish responds.

    "I didn't expect [that]!" Guardiola then quips at the winger's expense.

    In the next round, however, a disappointed Grealish trudged off as he was knocked out after clapping when Guardiola didn't bounce the ball.
