The Manchester City boss endeared himself to City fans even more than he already has after a video of him bellowing Don't Look Back In Anger alongside Maria circulated online.
Noel and Liam Gallagher are huge City fans themselves and, as well as regularly attending games at the Etihad, have even helped design a collaboration kit between the club and Oasis in recent seasons.
For the brothers, Guardiola will Live Forever in their memories after delivering City a Champions League trophy and six Premier League titles during his time at City so far.
But Guardiola appears to be just as big of an Oasis fan as the Gallaghers are of his.
The Spanish tactician, who sported a retro Man City shirt at the gig, was granted VIP access to the show and even posed for a picture alongside to Noel and Liam's family.
A backstage snap showed Noel's sons Noel's sons Donovan and Sonny next to Liam's daughter Anais, with Pep wedged between Liam's boys Gene and Lennon.
Guardiola was even honoured on stage as Noel performed alongside a cardboard cutout of the City gaffer in front of the 80,000-strong crowd.
, telling fans to Listen Up as he said: "I'd like to dedicate this to the greatest manager of all time, Mr Pep Guardiola."

While the front-man also began to imitate praying towards the manager, bending down and lowering his back while his hands are raised.
His antics were met with boos from small pockets of the crowd - likely Man Utd fans - who were less than impressed.
Oasis kick off first Manchester homecoming gig after 16 years away
But everyone was more than happy to just Roll With It as a chorus of laughter was let out when Noel joked: "Who you f***ing booing, who you f***ing booing?'
Guardiola will have been enjoying his final break before he has to Slide Away from the fun and get back into the swing of things when City return for pre-season.
City players are having an extended break before they reconvene for training after they took part in the new revamped Club World Cup in the US this summer.
Guardiola's side face Italian club Palermo in their only friendly on Saturday August 9.
They then kick off their bid to regain the Premier League title with a trip to Wolves on Saturday August 16th.
