Real Madrid’s Rodrygo responds to Vidal’s provocation

The video of Arturo Vidal at the Flamengo celebrations quickly reached Spain. “Madrid, we’re going to kick your ass,” was the provocative message from the Chilean, who maintains a longstanding rivalry with the merengues after his time at eternal rivals Barcelona. It was in reference, of course, to their upcoming meeting at the Club World Cup.

Rodrygo mocks Vidal over claims

After several days, and far from the South American’s celebrations, an answer was provided. The person in charge of taking the floor was Rodrygo, a player who is having an extraordinary season in Spain.

“I think he’s inconsolable, but we don’t talk much about him. We only saw a few videos there. Leave him alone,” said the Brazilian player, in ironic statements to TNT Sports Brazil.

Regarding football, the young star is focused on the here and now.

“We watched the game [the final of the Libertadores], we talked about it. But it is not something that matters for now, as we have many things ahead of us.

“When it gets closer, we’ll talk about it.”
