During the highly anticipated Euro 2024 final between Spain and England, tragedy struck for Spanish midfielder Rodri as he was forced off the field in the first half. The Manchester City player had started at the heart of Spain's midfield, but his time on the pitch was cut short due to an unfortunate injury.
It all happened towards the end of the first half, as Rodri collided with teammate Aymeric Laporte while attempting to clear the ball away from the area. In the process, he injured his left hamstring and was seen clutching it in pain. He immediately signaled to the bench that something was wrong, and after speaking with a member of Spain's medical team, it was clear that his final was over.
As his teammates headed back out onto the field for the second half, Rodri could only watch from the sidelines, with his hands on his head in disappointment. Despite his injury, he continued to offer support and give instructions to his teammates from the bench. And his efforts seemed to pay off, as Spain took an early lead in the second half with a goal from Nico Williams in the 47th minute.
Rodri's absence was a blow to the Spanish team, especially considering his impressive unbeaten run with the national side. In fact, the last time Spain lost a game in which Rodri played was during their Euro 2024 qualifying match against Scotland in March 2023. But despite his injury, Rodri's spirit remained strong as he cheered on his team from the sidelines.
