Manchester City opened its 2016-17 Champions League account in fine fashion Tuesday, with David Silva smacking home a low, driven shot past the Steaua Bucuresti goalkeeper after Raheem Sterling cut in and delivered a perfect pass across the box.

The 13th-minute goal came just moments after Sergio Aguero had a penalty saved by the 'keeper, which rebounded kindly for Nolito to attempt to clean up; however, the Spanish winger watched in agony as his follow-up shot smacked the crossbar, leaving City without a goal.

Silva made sure that miss didn't linger long in the memory.
