Real Madrid’s Brazilian star Rodrigo has once again emerged as a decisive striker in major matches. After his brilliant brace last season that killed Manchester City’s dreams, he hit a brace again that gave his team the local King’s Cup title against Osasuna.
In the short period he spent with “Los Blancos”, the 22-year-old won all possible titles with Real, the last of which was against Osasuna (2-1) in the Cup final on Saturday.
“His abilities are unpredictable,” said his Italian coach, Carlo Ancelotti, after his last brace.
A development that the former Santos player likes to show in the first continental competition. “I have always said that the Champions League is somewhat special for me.”
“I want to score more goals in the Champions League,” said the winger, who scored 10 goals in 21 Champions League matches over the last two seasons.
But the Brazilian genius in Real is not limited to the right wing with Rodrigo, as his compatriot Vinicius Junior proposes one achievement after another on the left side as a talented dribbler and a main supplier to veteran captain Benzema, returning from injury.
And while Vinicius suffers from racist attacks, especially because of his post-scoring celebrations, Rodrygo is seen positively in Spain. He dedicated his second goal against Osasuna to a child suffering from cancer.
He continued, “I visited them and gave them a gift or two. He asked me to show the first letter of his name in the event of my registration, so the second goal was for him.”
Despite all this, the Brazilian hopes to play a key role against City, as Ancelotti sometimes prefers Uruguayan Federico Valverde, who has a high fitness ability.
The Champions League front will be Real’s last this season, after winning the cup and losing hope of competing for the league title, which is heading towards its rivals, Barcelona. Even Real lost its last match against Real Sociedad and gave up second place to its archrival Atletico Madrid.
