He said that Real Madrid surprised Manchester City with one of their moves during the 3-3 tie between the two teams.

Ruben Dias scored an own goal, which made it 2-1 for the home team against City.

The Real Madrid winger looked like he was ready to cause trouble for the away team at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The 23-year-old famously scored two goals in the dying minutes of the second leg of the Champions League semi-final at home in the 2021–22 season to keep his team’s hopes alive in the tournament.

After that, Karim Benzema scored a penalty kick in extra time to send Real Madrid to the final, where they beat Liverpool 1-0.

Rodrygo had a lot of room to run at City’s defense on Tuesday night, so Pep Guardiola would be glad that he didn’t take advantage of it even more after scoring.

Rodrygo says Man City”didn’t expect” one Real Madrid move.

They found a way to keep the flexible forward from hurting them more by having John Stones and Manuel Akanji take turns taming him. He was a gentleman for most of the game, though.

The wide player who used to play for Santos, on the other hand, was hard for City to handle because he is one of the fastest players on the field and has a lot of tricks and moves.

Any back line would have a hard time trying to keep Rodrygo quiet, not just Manchester City.

This is a trait that the speedster has, and he often shows it in Europe’s top competitions.

The winner of the Champions League game said something interesting after the game.

Rodrygo thought that Real Madrid’s move against Manchester City on Tuesday was a surprise.

“Because Vini is always there, they didn’t think I’d go down the left.” We tried something new, and it worked, but not the way we wanted it to. He said on Real Madrid’s website, “Now we have to think about next week.”

Before the second game, City needs to remember this.

Rodrygo has a good point. Manchester City might have thought Vinicius Junior would play on the left wing instead of him while they were practicing for the game against Real Madrid.

Pep Guardiola and his staff need to get their team ready for the second game by making sure they know how to handle the dangerous forward if he starts on the left flank.

Or if Carlo Ancelotti changes things during the game and moves Rodrygo to the other wing, even though he usually plays on the right side.

It worked for Real Madrid, but if you know Guardiola, he will train his defenders to make sure Rodrygo has a terrible game at the Etihad Stadium if he plays on the left side like he does at home.
