The Uruguayan’s goal last night against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League really was a textbook piece of work, deserving to grave the tournament.
The Portuguese appealed, but it was pretty pitiful stuff. Yes, there was contact, but insufficient for anyone in their right mind to believe it was even vaguely a foul.
The 25-year-old had 3 shots on goal, and 4 touches in his opponent’s penalty area. If Rodrigo were able to add this attacking edge to his Tottenham game, a useful signing could be an outstanding one.
