Watch: Rodri's precise goal lifts Man City to Champions League glory
Rodri never saw the field for Manchester City in their 2021 Champions League final defeat to Chelsea. Two years later, he's their hero.
The Spanish midfielder scored the lone goal in Saturday's match against Inter Milan, pouncing on a loose ball just inside the penalty area and unleashing a wicked strike to give his side a precious 1-0 lead in the 68th minute. Pep Guardiola's team never relinquished that advantage.
