Bernardo Silva was on target as Manchester City beat Leicester City 1-0 at The King Power Stadium.
The Portuguese earned Manchester City its third straight victory in the English Premier League with a second-half goal to see off Leicester 1-0 on Saturday.
The city playmaker has had a superb start to the new season and his goal on 62 minutes settled this enthralling encounter at the King Power.
The forward’s first goal of the season gave the visitors a third straight win and revenge for last month’s Community Shield defeat to the Foxes.
The win would have come easier for City if it wasn’t for wasteful finishing that underlined its need for a striker to replace Sergio Aguero, having missed out on signing Harry Kane in the summer transfer window.
Man City fans, then, were all over Twitter praising Bernardo Silva for his display. Here’s what some of them had to say on Twitter…
Best Portuguese in the league
