Bernardo reflects on Manchester derby defeat

Bernardo Silva has expressed his disappointment after a largely efficient City performance reaped no reward as we fell to a 2-1 Premier League defeat to Manchester United.

Josko Gvardiol headed us ahead expertly before the interval as Pep Guardiola‘s men limited the visitors’ attacking threat.

In an even second period, Ruben Amorim’s side won a penalty with three minutes left to play, with Bruno Fernandes converting.

Amad Diallo found the net in stoppage time to secure the points for United, making it just one win in 11 matches across all competitions for City.

Following the game, Bernardo Silva said:

“After a game that until minute 86, if you look at the game, there was only one team that could win that game. You make bad decisions and you pay the price at this level.

“My feeling on the pitch was that we were controlling almost every part of the game, offensively and defensively.

“Of course they had one or two situations where they put us a bit under pressure. but overall it looked like a good performance.

“They [City fans] were great today, we feel really bad because we couldn’t give them something today, but they were really good.”
