Haaland double inspires City to dominant derby win

Bernardo Silva's performance was vital as Manchester City outclassed Manchester United in Sunday's 3-0 derby victory.

The Portuguese midfielder was at the heart of everything the champions did well, and he capped his display with a delightful assist as his floated cross to the back post was headed in by Erling Haaland.

Consequently, Bernardo is among four City players named in the Team of the Week selected by Alan Shearer, the Premier League's record goalscorer and Hall of Fame inductee.
