'Our goal is to do better' - Bernardo Silva reveals Manchester City's Champions League motivation

Manchester City are driven to perform better in the Champions League after their past failures, said playmaker Bernardo Silva.

The English side completed the group stage with a crushing 3-0 win over Marseille at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, with the match a dead rubber after City had already been confirmed as group winners.

City are yet to win the Champions League despite competing in the competition on nine occasions in their history, with a semi-final defeat to Real Madrid in 2015-16 their best result.
