If someone knows perfectly in the Real squad what it is to face Manchester United that is David
Silva, who in his ten-year stint at Manchester City faced the 'Red Devils' up to 15 times. His record is eight wins, six losses and a single draw, with four goals scored.
The canary participated in the historic “citizen” win at Old Trafford in October 2011, when the team then led by Robert
Mancini was imposed by 1-6 to those of Alex
Ferguson. Silva was one of the most outstanding men in that game, scoring one of six goals. It was not the first goal that Silva had scored in the ‘Theater of Dreams’, since eight months earlier he had made his debut in a 2-1 defeat. The canary equaled the goal of Nani in the second half, but a goal from Rooney decided the meeting.
Nevertheless, Silva went on to score five more victories at Old Trafford, scoring as much in a 1-2 win in December 2017.
His last goal for United was scored in a 3-1 win at the Etihad Stadium in November 2018.
