Manchester City fans lauded Bernardo Silva’s strike as a goal of the season contender as Pep Guardiola’s side took control of their Champions League clash at Sporting Lisbon.
City kicked off the knockout stages of the competition as they travelled to Portugal for the first leg of their last-16 tie, and they couldn’t have made a better start to proceedings.
They took an early lead when Riyad Mahrez turned the ball home from Kevin De Bruyne’s cut-back, with a long VAR check eventually resulting in City going in front.
