Bernardo Silva gutted after Man City loss to Shakhtar Donestk

Bernardo Silva has expressed his disappointment after Manchester City's 2-1 loss to Shakhtar Donestk on Wednesday night.

The loss marked City's first of the season.

Speaking to BT Sport after the game, Silva said: "The game didn't go as we expected, in the first half they were better than us and it was a deserved win for them.

"In the second half we tried to come back, had our chances, but we are not happy. Even though we had already qualified, we wanted the three points.

"We have played against some amazing teams this season, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal and we did well. In the Champions League you never know what will happen and we will see what happens.

"We will try our best to win all the competitions. Today it was a big opportunity for most of the players that are not playing as much as the others. I hope we can win at the weekend (against Manchester United), this is a really important match for us."
