Rodrigo Hernandezplayer of Manchester City, evaluated the match against Atletico Madrid. The man from Madrid, a former squad player for the ‘rojiblanco’ team, acknowledged that it was “a special match” for him. “I have always said it, it is the team of my heart, it has given me everything”. “It was weird in that sense, but when the game starts you forget about these things,” he said in words to Movistar.
Already about the match he said: “Very difficult, very demanding, I know them well, few spaces. Happy for the victory, it is the typical game that can get you tangled if it ends 0-0. In these types of matches you have to put in what you have and then control”.
“The game started with Joao and Griezmann higher up, that gave us a little more space, but then with each one on the band it was two lines of five and there it was very difficult. On the positive side, we won the match and scored a goal”, he explained. “Time has passed, I have been here for three seasons, they have changed the system. When you play against a team from another league it’s complicated because you don’t know what you’re going to find, but we knew the profile. It is a dangerous team, there is a counter where they put fear into our bodies”, he pointed out, ending by saying: “You have to mess up a bit to open up the spaces, but we controlled that situation well”.
