Pep Guardiola was delighted with Claudio Bravo's Manchester City debut on Saturday, despite the goalkeeper being at fault for Manchester United's goal.
Guardiola's men beat the Red Devils 2-1 at Old Trafford as Bravo turned out for the Premier League side for the first time following his move from Barcelona.
The Chilean shot stopper was brought in to replace Joe Hart, who moved to Torino on loan due to Guardiola's preference in goalkeepers with greater distribution and technical ability.
The shot stopper did not get off to a great start, it seemed, as he collided with one of his own players and fumbled a cross, allowing Zlatan Ibrahimovic to fire in his side's goal to cut City's lead.
Guardiola, though, insists Bravo had a fantastic game.
"What Claudio Bravo did was one of the best performances I've ever seen," he said afterwards.
