Bernardo Silva: We will fight to the very end.

Manchester City, nicknamed "The Citizens," suffered a 0-2 defeat away to their city rivals Manchester United in a crucial second-half match of the 22nd round of the 2025/26 Premier League season, conceding two goals in the second half. Bernardo Silva stated that the team lacked much of what they should have done in the game, but insisted that they would fight to the very end in the remaining stretch of the season.

Bruno Fernandes delivered a diagonal pass to the edge of the penalty area in the 64th minute of the second half, where Mbourneau received the ball and fired a low shot into the net, giving Manchester United a 1-0 lead.

In the 76th minute, Cunha crossed from the right wing while dealing with the defense, and Patrick Dogu slid in to score, extending Manchester United's lead to 2-0.

Ultimately, Manchester City lost 0-2 to Manchester United in this Manchester derby.

Manchester City captain Bernardo Silva said, "Our opponents deserved the victory. They showed more energy and intent in the game. Throughout the match, you could feel that they could score at any moment, while we failed to get into the game. They took the game to their preferred pace, which is not our pace."

“Since I came to England, we have been a very controlled team, but we were missing too much in this game, and it was undoubtedly a bad day. I don’t think we have any excuses for a performance like this, and it was a very bad game.”

After losing 3 points, Manchester City remain in 2nd place in the standings with 43 points, 7 points behind Arsenal in 1st place.

When discussing the situation in the standings, Bernardo Silva said, "The gap is indeed very large. We will not deceive ourselves into thinking that the gap is not large, but we will fight to the end."
