Manchester City's defence was likened to that of an under-15s team by a frustrated Bernardo Silva following their derby defeat on Sunday. Despite Josko Gvardiol's header putting City in the lead against Manchester United, they were unable to secure the win.

A penalty from Bruno Fernandes, following Matheus Nunes' foul on Amad, levelled the score. Amad then managed to beat the offside trap, leading to another disappointing defeat for City.

Bernardo criticised his defensive teammates for their handling of United's late winning goals, particularly their failure to prevent an attacking corner turning into a penalty for the opposition.

Here is every word from Bernardo's furious post-match interview with Sky Sports

SS: "Can you understand what just happened?"

BS: "We totally deserved what happened. At this level if it's a game or two you can say you are lucky or unlucky. If it's 10 games you can't say that. If 87 minutes in a derby and you're winning 1-0 and you have a corner for your team and you end up with the ball at your keeper with a penalty for them. If you make these kind of stupid decisions with three or four minutes to go, you deserve to pay for that.

BS: "If you look at the game, my feeling was there was only one team who could win it but at the end we lost. It's not one game, it's a lot of games lately. We have to look at ourselves, it's not about 'oh we're playing well and we're unlucky.' No. It's the decisions we make. Today the last minutes we played like under-15s and you pay the price."

SS: "You talk about stupid decisions - why are you making them?

BS: "I don't know. I know we don't want it to happen. As I said, it's a bit frustrating, if you look at the game until minute 86 there was only one team that could win this football game. Then from a corner for Man City, even if you leave a centre-back back, Ruben [Dias] stayed, you end up with the ball at our keeper. There's no excuse at this level. We deserved what happened."

SS: "Do you console Matheus Nunes and others, or have there been harsh words in the dressing room?"

BS: "It's not about one player or two. When it happens in ten games it's collectively. But obviously each one of us individually needs to look at ourselves and see what we can do better. There needs to be communication at that minute and level of the game. There needs to be communication to play short or keep the ball in the corner. If the ball ends up at a midfielder, put the ball in the corner to put them under pressure."

BS: "It's not just the pass from Matheus to the keeper. It's everything from our corner, how the ball ends up from Ruben to Kyle [Walker] to Matheus that everyone under pressure to play to the keeper. It just cannot happen, we have to do better in these situations. We have to be more experienced, smarter. At this level even if you're better than the opponents, if you make these kind of results you deserve to lose the game.

SS: "You sound angry?"

BS: "It's quite normal we're not happy at this minute. We have to do better individually and collectively, it's not the standards of Man City."
