Bernardo's one-word reaction to Mahrez wonder goal for Man City vs Leicester City

Bernardo Silva was almost left lost for words by his Manchester City teammate Riyad Mahrez's brilliant opening goal against Leicester City.

After already picking up two victories in what has been a gruelling opening week of the season, City are aiming to keep their 100 per cent start in tact against the Foxes.

It didn't take long for them to take the lead in the match, as Mahrez struck against his former club after just four minutes. Leicester failed to defend a corner properly and the ball eventually landed at the Algerian's feet, which he then smashed into the far top corner from an acute angle.

Bernardo isn't involved at the Etihad on Sunday afternoon as he is still recovering from a thigh injury but he is still supporting his colleagues and watching the game.

The Portuguese took to Twitter to complement Mahrez on his fantastic strike and wrote: "Wooow" accompanied with shock emojis.
