Bernardo Silva enjoyed a stellar campaign with Manchester City and he has carried on with his sensational form against Switzerland. Silva looked a bit out of sorts in the initial minutes of the first half but as the match went on, he gradually settled in and looked at his very best.

Silva's ability to pick out his teammates with pinpoint passes in the final third makes him one of the best in business. The 24-year-old created chances after chances and he was able to dictate the pace of the game by continuously breaking the Swiss defensive barriers with relative ease.

The Manchester City star had already fed Ronaldo with a golden opportunity in the first half which he missed but Silva was absolutely relentless. It was Silva who picked out Ronaldo with a superb pass in the 88th minute which was eventually converted by the Juventus star.

If Ronaldo is the talisman of this Portugal side, Silva is undoubtedly the player which makes them tick.
