Brazil's Rodrigo sees Argentina as a tough opponent
From Santos to Real Madrid—wherever he played, Rodrigo left his signature talent. At only 21 years of age, this forward is one of the hopes of Real Madrid's attack. In this season, he has scored seven goals for Real, and scored five more. If everything goes well, the responsibility of Brazil's attack will fall on Neymar's shoulders in the World Cup in Qatar.
Rodrigo is going to play the World Cup for the first time. In the eyes of the striker, there are few teams that can win the World Cup despite accepting their tough opponents in the mission to bring home the sixth title. In an interview given to 'Marca' before catching the flight to Qatar, the Brazilian said, 'We are not the only favorites because we have won the title five times before. We are a strong team, but there are some other strong teams. There will be no team favorites in the World Cup. But this time we have all the ability to win the World Cup.'
Analysts are placing Argentina at the top of the list of favorites in this World Cup. Because this team has been playing together for a long time.
Lionel Scaloni's Argentina has been unbeaten for 35 consecutive matches since 2019. In the eyes of Rodrigo, this Argentina is quite scary, as evidenced in the 2021 Copa America, 'They are tough opponents, but as I have said before, no team is a favorite in the World Cup. Anything can happen. It's the World Cup, everything is difficult here. But by winning the Copa America, they proved that Argentina is a very formidable opponent.
Neymar has been the lifeblood of Brazil for a long time. He is the mainstay of the attack. Although the World Cup or Copa America, he has not yet tasted a title in any major event for the country.
Neymar, who is waiting to play the third World Cup of his career, said in an interview a few days ago that he will play this World Cup as the last one. So he wants to unleash his best in this World Cup. So Brazil coach Tite can arrange strategy around Neymar this time too. However, Rodrigo doesn't agree that the team's strategy will be based around Neymar.
But if Neymar can give his best, the other footballers will benefit in the end, this footballer of Real Madrid accepts that. Rodrigo's answer to the question of whether all strategies will be arranged around Neymar, 'Not really. But we know he is our best player. For him to be in rhythm, we have to give our best on the field. If Neymar plays well, we will all benefit. Because, he helps everyone a lot. So sometimes the game is important for him.mportant for him.
