Last night, in his most recent international match, Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva distinguished himself for Portugal.
Portugal defeated Slovakia 1-0 in their most recent Euro 2024 qualifying game, with midfielder Bruno Fernandes of Manchester United scoring the winning goal.
Despite that, one of City’s Portuguese players ended up having a great game and having a significant impact on it.
In the most recent Portugal game, Silva dazzled.
After the whole 90 minutes of play, Silva had a total of 62 touches of the ball and successfully completed 48 of his 51 passes, giving him a passing accuracy percentage of 94%, the joint-second highest in the team.
Of the three crucial passes he made during the game, he also assisted Fernandes on the game-winning goal.
Silva contributed to his team’s clean sheet by making two tackles and one clearing in addition to being a nuisance for the opposition offensively.
The City star ended up receiving a final match rating from SofaScore of 7.6/10, earning him the second-highest rated player that began for Portugal.
Given everything, it’s easy to assume that the 29-year-old had a solid outing for his nation and delivered a strong performance.
If Silva continues to play like this for City over the course of the season, he will surely be regarded as one of the Manchester club’s most crucial players of the year, particularly if they manage to retain the crowns they won last year.
