Rodrygo
Real Madrid’s Rodrygo denied comparisons with the club’s former Brazilian striker, Ronaldo.
He scored after just 93 seconds, just 31 seconds slower than Ronaldo’s debut goal against Deportivo Alaves in 2002.
Speaking after the game, Rodrygo was quick to play down any suggestion that he will take on a similar role, saying: “I don’t want any comparisons with Ronaldo being made because he’s one of the game’s all-time best and one of my country’s best.
