Bernardo Silva’s striking words after Manchester City’s downfall: “Defended like under-15s.”

Every word from Bernardo Silva’s startling interview following Manchester City’s collapse:

 

“Defended like under-15s”According to a caustic Bernardo Silva, Manchester City’s derby loss on Sunday was entirely justified, as they defended like under-15s.

 

 

City appeared to have secured a hard-fought derby victory over Manchester United as a result of Josko Gvardiol’s strike.

 

 

Despite their lack of conviction, they were on the brink of securing three critical points after nine consecutive losses.

 

 

However, Matheus Nunes inadvertently assisted Amad in scoring a goal before impeding him in the area, which allowed Bruno Fernandes to equalize from the penalty spot. Amad then evaded the offside trap, resulting in another humbling loss for City.

 

 

It was once again a case of one error leading to another, and the City collapsed from a position of strength.

 

 

Bernardo criticized his defensive teammates for their handling of United’s late winning goals, especially for allowing an attacking corner to be converted into a penalty for the visitors.

 

 

The following is a comprehensive transcript of Bernardo’s vehement post-match interview with Sky Sports:

 

 

“We entirely merited the events that transpired.” At this stage, one may assert that they are either fortunate or unfortunate based on the outcome of one or two games.

 

 

 

You are unable to make that statement if the number of games is ten. In the event that you are leading 1-0 after 87 minutes of a derby, and you have a corner kick for your team, and you wind up with the ball at your keeper with a penalty for them.

 

 

You should be held accountable for making such foolish decisions with only three or four minutes remaining. “Upon observing the game, I had the impression that there was only one team capable of winning; however, we ultimately suffered a defeat.”

 

 

In recent times, there have been numerous contests, rather than a single one. It is imperative that we examine ourselves; it is not a matter of “we are playing well and we are unlucky.” False.

 

 

These are the decisions we make. The last minutes of today were spent playing like under-15s, and you are the one who is now paying the price. You discuss the folly of your decisions; why are you continuing to make them?
