Bernardo Silva equaled Cristiano Ronaldo’s Premier League assist record with one assist against Everton.

In the 53rd minute, the Portuguese international set up Phil Foden with a pass outside the box, and the England international produced a magnificent long-range goal to restore level for Manchester City. Silva equaled Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo’s Premier League record with his 37th assist for the Cityzens.

Julian Alvarez scored from the penalty spot for the reigning champions ten minutes after Foden equalized. Silva then sealed the match with a spectacular finish in the 86th minute. In 16 league games for the Sky Blues this season, the former AS Monaco player has five goals and four assists.

The attacking midfielder was linked with a move to Saudi Arabia in the summer, alongside PSG and Barcelona, but he chose to stay in the Premier League. He later agreed to terms with the European champions on a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2026.

The victory at Goodison Park will be a huge lift for Pep Guardiola’s team, who have cut the distance to league leaders Liverpool to five points and climbed back to fourth place. The English champions will meet Sheffield United in their final game of the season on Saturday.
