Bernardo Silva calls for VAR to be introduced in Champions League

Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva insists that VAR should be rolled out in the Champions League next season after his side were denied a legitimate goal.

Bernardo Silva has called on Champions League chiefs to introduce VAR from next season following Manchester City's defeat to Liverpool.

A big decision went against the Citizens at a pivotal moment in the tie, as Leroy Sane wrongly had a goal ruled out with the score at 3-1.

Sane was adjudged to have been offside, despite the final touch before he struck home coming off Liverpool player James Milner.

The Reds went on to win 5-1 through a couple of second-half goals from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, leaving Bernardo to question the integrity of the competition.

"Thank you all for the support and amazing atmosphere tonight! We gave everything we could so no regrets," he posted on his personal Instagram page.

"Next year we'll be back to try again! Congratulations to @liverpoolfc and good luck on the semi-finals. Now let's go win the premier league and end the season with a title @mancity.

"Ps: @championsleague could you guys start using the VAR next season? It might be useful."

Next up for Man City is a trip to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
