The footballer from Extremadura asks for a starting place against United as in 4 out of 6 matches in the Europa League and has provided 2 assists.
The real Betis took a valuable point against Real Madrid in the Benito Villamarín. The béticos have asserted their football against the current LaLiga champions and continue to dream of the ‘Champions’ positions.
It was not an easy game for Manuel Pellegrini’s men, who entered the match with the losses of two of their great references, such as Fékir and Canales. But Players like Rodri Sánchez stepped forward and stood out against an always tough opponent.
The Talayuela footballer put in a great performance that earned him the title of LaLiga’s best man of the match. He was able to provide break and criteria with the ball (88% in the pass) to break Madrid’s midfield.
To this must be added his great defensive effort (12.6 kilometers covered). Rodri recovered to 7 balls and won two games, adding three fouls received. A job that Manuel Pellegrini himself recognized at a press conference.
The Under-21 international reaffirmed his status as a key player in the Verdiblanco fief, just as he did in his last match against UD Almería in the Mediterranean Games. There, Rodri scored a goal and provided an assist, highlighting his stellar form just days before coming on against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Also A great version of Rodri Sánchez has been seen in the Europa League, starting in 4 of 6 games played, and where he has already made his mark with two assists, some of them decisive, such as the one he gave to Luiz Henrique at the Stadio Olímpico. Europe is also waiting for a Rodri who has taken the lead in these last games and hopes to do it at the Theater of Dreams.
