Bernardo Silva penalty delay explained after Man City exit Champions League

Manchester City's own fans played a role in Bernardo Silva 's surprise penalty miss against Real Madrid on Wednesday night as the reigning champions bowed out.

Extra time passed both sides by and so it went to penalties. Silva, often so reliable for City, was the first to blink. Silva's penalty caught the attention, though, after he was made to wait over half a minute for the ball to be returned from the stands. After Modric missed he then proceeded to hoof the ball into the crowd behind the goal in anger, only for the home supporters to keep it.

Rio Ferdinand added, "40 seconds by the way Joleon." Lescott replied: "That is a long time. It may not seem that long but it's a very long time when you are waiting there and you are thinking, now do I change position? Now do I change where I go? And all of a sudden, it's a soft penalty." "He would have definitely passed on experiences and knowledge because he wants his team-mates to go through. The fact that they played together obviously helped him tonight, but he wouldn't have thought about an ex-team-mate."
