Silva hails derby victory as 'one of best wins' for Man City

Bernardo Silva hailed Manchester City's 3-0 demolition of Manchester United on Sunday as "one of the best wins" for Pep Guardiola's all-conquering side.

The treble winners were dominant at Old Trafford against their listless opponents.

Erling Haaland scored a spot-kick and unmarked header before playing in Phil Foden to wrap up 3-0 victory, but City's superiority was far greater than the scoreline suggests.

Silva told Sky Sports: "When we come to these places, like Anfield and Old Trafford, we know what teams are waiting for -- for us to lose the ball and counter.

"It is about the build-up, not losing simple balls and controlling the game and being slow in the first metres of our half and goal kicks. After then it is about breaking through to attack. It is never easy to come here to beat this team.

"It is definitely one of the best wins. To win 3-0 away with this crowd, I think it is definitely one of the best performances."

Haaland described the win, which lifts City to third in the table, as "amazing".

"A fantastic win and the game was incredible and the team, everything, especially this guy (Silva)," he said.
