On July 11th, England beat the Netherlands 2-1 in the European Championship semifinals to advance to the final, where they will face Spain for the title. It is worth noting that Rodri, whose national team had gone unbeaten for a remarkable 470 days, will face Menú once again. The last time these two met, Menú ended Rodri’s undefeated streak at Manchester City. Will history repeat itself this time?
In this European Championship, Spain has played with incredible fluidity and has deservedly reached the final. England’s journey to the final has been a bit bumpier.
As the brains behind Spain’s midfield, Rodri has maintained an unbeaten record for 470 days with his national team. He is now aiming for the European Championship title, but he has encountered Menú again, a player who holds unpleasant memories for him.
In the 2023-24 FA Cup final, Manchester United surprisingly defeated Manchester City 2-1, ending Rodri’s 74-game unbeaten run in regular time for Manchester City. In that match, Menú not only scored but also won the Man of the Match award.
Now, Rodri’s national team has been unbeaten for an extended period. Will Menú be able to disrupt the factory again?
