Bernardo Silva goal vs Man Utd: The Portuguese attacker opened the goalscoring against Manchester United in the league’s derby fixture.
Manchester United are hosting Manchester City at Old Trafford in a vital Premier League clash.
Bernardo Silva opened the goalscoring for the visitors in the 54th minute, after Manchester United looked fairly impressive throughout the first half.
The Manchester United attack created multiple chances but failed to put the ball past the net. However, Bernardo Silva’s accurate spot beat De Gea at the near post as Manchester City took an important lead in the game.
Bernardo Silva goal vs Man Utd:
With this goal, Manchester City have reached back at the top of the table at the moment. Manchester United, meanwhile, would remain at sixth if they fail to win the game.
The clash between the two Manchester sides is significant for both. While Manchester United could strengthen their claim for the top-4 with a win, Manchester City will lead Liverpool by a point if they secure three at Old Trafford.
And for now, the latter seems a big possibility.
