City player Bernardo Silva, on the other hand, was overjoyed to see his club qualify for the knockout stage, and noted that keeping great offensive trio Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar relatively hidden was a huge achievement.
“I’m overjoyed to have won the match. And to emerge as the group’s winners. A solid win, a good performance. “We are through to the last 16 after just one game,” the Portugal international told BT Sport.
“It was disappointing in the first half since it felt like we had the game under control.” We were pushing high, winning the ball, and possessing it, but we were failing to score.
“The team had a fantastic reaction after conceding. You’re never completely safe. If you give Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe space, they can generate chances.”
