Desporto Rodrygo

Roughly a year after the heavy elimination in the 'semis' of the Champions League, Real Madrid is preparing to meet Manchester City again, this Tuesday, this time in the 'quarters' of the millionaire competition, leading Rodrygo to confess that he did not want to face the current European champion (also English and world champion) again, due to the thrashing suffered (4-0) at the Etihad in the final stretch of 2022/2023.

"Manchester City is an opponent that, to be honest, we didn't want to face. And they think the same because they didn't want to play against us. It's a game that everyone expects to be the final, but it will be now. They are very good, but our team is also very strong", he began by saying in statements to The Guardian.

"They are the winners of the Champions League, they are the world champions, today they are the best team in the world, so we have total respect for them", he added next.

"There are no bad or average players. There is no player that you can think of like this: 'I'm going to put pressure on him because he's not good and he'll offer a great chance.' They have very good control of the game and the ball. They are a very difficult team. It's very annoying to play against them, but I believe in our team", he concluded.
