B. Silva: "We cannot think that the quarterfinal with "Real" is already over" © „Reuters“

„Manchester City“ representative Bernardo Silva believes that in August they will face a serious test. It is precisely at the end of summer that the UEFA Champions League should resume, where they still have to finish the quarter-final stage. The „Man City“ team still has to play the second leg match against Real Madrid. It is already clear that the matches will take place without spectators. The first leg in Madrid ended with a 2-1 victory for the „City“, and, according to B. Silva, the winner of the tie is still far from clear. „You cannot write off any team, especially Real Madrid, which has 13 Champions League titles“, the Portuguese told AS newspaper. „No one has as much experience in this tournament as the Real players. We definitely can't think that we have already beaten them. The battle for reaching the next stage is still open. When you play against such a team, you have no guarantees. We can remember the results of recent years. Last year, „Barca“ won 3-0 against „Liverpool“, and then „Liverpool“ turned around and won 4-0. I agree that our result is quite good and we are in a good position to move forward, but we still have a tough battle ahead“, added B. Silva.
