Bad news for Manchester City who had to register the injury of Rodriforced to leave the field due to an injury during the Premier League match against Arsenal, which ended 2-2.
The midfielder went down on his own without any significant contact from an opponent, looking as if he had hit his knee on a corner. City manager Pep Guardiola was unable to provide much of an update after the game, saying only: “I don’t know yet, I haven’t spoken to the doctor.”
Rodri left the field in the 21st minute, being replaced by Mateo Kovacic. It was the Spaniard’s first match as a starter, given that the Citizens are trying to manage his workload after the effort of the European Championships during the summer, which ended with the victory of the Red Furies.
