“We’re Waiting for Them at Our Home”: Rodri Breaks Silence on Vinícius Jr. Ballon d’Or Saga Ahead of Man City vs. Real Madrid
As Manchester City gears up for their high-stakes Champions League clash with Real Madrid, midfielder Rodri has addressed the ongoing Ballon d’Or debate surrounding Vinícius Jr.
In a recent press conference, Rodri kept his response short but pointed, saying, “We’re waiting for them at our home. This is all I have to say for now.”
The statement, though brief, adds another layer of intensity to the already heated rivalry between the two European giants. City knocked out Madrid in last season’s semifinals, and with Vinícius Jr. in excellent form this season, the Brazilian winger has been a key figure in Madrid’s pursuit of European glory, sparking conversations about his Ballon d’Or credentials.
Rodri’s comments seem to signal that City is more focused on the upcoming clash than any individual awards, with the team’s performance taking precedence.
The matchup is shaping up to be a thrilling encounter, with both sides eager to prove their superiority in this latest chapter of their rivalry.
