Rodrigo’s name topped the headlines of the press, on Saturday night, after his two goals that secured Real Madrid’s first title this season, after he won the King’s Cup at the expense of the stubborn Osasuna.
As always, the “Royal” fans always appeared, the shy Brazilian youth appeared at crucial times, to score an important goal that led his team to victory.
But the way Rodrigo celebrated by drawing the letter “i” aroused the curiosity of the followers, who wanted to know the reason behind it, which Rodrigo revealed in an interview.
Speaking after the match, Rodrigo revealed to Marca why he celebrated with the letter “i” after scoring both goals in the final.
The young star said that the movement is a tribute to a sick child who supports Real Madrid named Ignacio, whom he met days before the cup final match.
“It was for Ignacio, the boy with cancer whom I visited this week in Guigaterapia,” said the Brazilian striker. “He asked me to sign his name (i) if I scored, and I did it for him.”
Ignacio, who is just 8 years old, has lymphoma and was visited by Rodrigo earlier this week after he had to postpone a previous trip.
During the meeting, the two played video games such as FIFA 23 on the PlayStation 5, according to Football Spain.
Indeed, Rodrigo fulfilled his promise and remembered Ignacio, during the final, which he won for Real Madrid 2-1 against Osasuna, to win the team’s first “King’s Cup” championship in 9 years.
