Monaco-Man City: Bernardo Silva pays Eric Dier

This Wednesday, Manchester City had to settle for a draw against AS Monaco (2-2) in the Champions League. A penalty granted to the Monegasques at the end of the game, after a high foot of Nico González on Eric Dier, allowed the English international and his family to save a point in extremis.

Asked about the disputed action concerning the former Tottenham player, Bernardo Silva chose irony. The Portuguese attacking midfielder recalled the reputation that Eric Dier drags in the Premier League.

Silva Pique Dier

“I haven't seen the fault. Maybe it's a penalty. I don't know, I would have to see the images again. Eric Dier, he is known to dive ”launched the Portuguese international with smile.

At the end of this 2ᵉ day of the league phase, the men of Pep Guardiola point to 8ᵉ place, synonymous with qualification. Their next meeting is set for October 21, on the lawn of Villarreal, after the international break.
