'The rightful Ballon d’Or winner.' Fans about Rodri’s return
In the 37th round match of the English Premier League, Manchester City have faced Bournemouth. Pep Guardiola’s team won 3-1.
The match was remembered for two significant events. First – this was Kevin De Bruyne’s last game for Manchester City at the home stadium. Second – the return of Rodri after injury.
The midfielder entered the field in the 83rd minute, replacing Erling Haaland. Rodri had not played for 8 months. He was recovering from a serious injury sustained on September 22, 2024, in a match against Arsenal.
Initially, it was predicted that Rodri would return no earlier than the start of the next season. But the player recovered much faster. Manchester City fans are happy about the return of the 2024 Ballon d’Or winner.
