A priori, Rodri Hernández will be one of the starters chosen by Luis Enrique to face Germany after Sergio Busquets was injured in the duel against Switzerland.
The Manchester City midfielder, who attended the media instead of Sergio Ramos, who was the first option, defended his teammates up front, asked about the lack of a goal, claiming that “it is something that also happens to other teams.”
The former Villarreal and Atlético de Madrid player commented that he sees “other teams and they don't beat either.” He also claimed that “lately the goal is very expensive and the defensive level is very high.”
Trial by fire against Germany
On the game against the Germans in which La Roja is only worth winning, Rodri confessed that “it will be a good level test to know where we are. With the European Championship so close and taking into account that you have to win, we will do our best to try to win. I think if we give everything we can stand up to anyone. It's like a final because we want to be in the next round and win the tournament, “he said.
He also commented that the group has this mentality thanks to Luis Enrique. “The coach always wants to win. I remember that in the friendly against the Netherlands he told us that “nothing was friendly” and that he was going to treat the game as if it were from the Eurocup and that, therefore, we would do the same ”.
