Rodrygo wins the game against Bale and Asensio
The Brazilian returns to ownership after six league games in which he did not play a single minute and even went down to play with Castilla de Raúl.
The break has rehabilitated Rodrygo . Zidane trusts the Brazilian for his first eleven in the league restart . Although Madrid played its last game on March 8, on 27 it was not a starter since January 26 in Valladolid. In fact, from that date until the competition was interrupted, he had not played with the first team in the League and only played 14 minutes in the Cup.
The occupant of the right flank of the attack was one of the great doubts raised by the eleven of Zidane. Up to six players were vying for ownership. Finally, Rodrygo has been imposed on Bale, Asensio, Brahim and Vinicius. In the previous one, a muscular overload separated Lucas Vázquez from the race.
Rodrygo's season has been a rollercoaster ride. He barely played a couple of games with Castilla and Zidane kept it for the first team. Between those two meetings with the subsidiary he debuted with a goal against Osasuna and his growth was meteoric, with a hat-trick in the Champions League to Galatasaray included .
But after the Christmas break, his presence was diluting as quickly as it had emerged. After starting on January 26 in Valladolid (he played the entire game in Zorrilla), he did not even enter the next three league calls (Atlético, Osasuna and Celta). He barely had a quarter of an hour in the Cup against Real Sociedad (he scored a goal) and left the way to go down to help Castilla de Raúl and play the role of his compatriot Reinier, newcomer . That expelled game ended and the sanction caused him not to be able to choose to play the Classic. He returned to the bench at VillamarÃn, without playing a single minute. Six days later, he returns to Di Stéfano, this time with the first team.
