Man City midfielder Bernardo Silva: We must move on

Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva says they must not dwell on their shattering Champions League elimination.

City saw their hopes of conquering Europe and winning an unprecedented Quadruple this season ended in a dramatic quarter-final clash against Tottenham at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.

"We are very disappointed," said Silva, one of City's scorers in a sensational game that opened with five goals inside a pulsating first 21 minutes.

"Obviously we wanted to qualify for the semi-finals. We're disappointed with the result and the way we conceded the goals but I think the way the team played was very good. It was fantastic, especially after (being) 2-1 behind.

"It's not a very good feeling to have but that's football. Now we have to focus on the Premier League and FA Cup. We will have to forget about it and go for the competitions we are still in."
