Real Madrid\u2019s new manager Xabi Alonso has been wonderful so far as he got his second La Liga victory in just 2nd game. There were reports suggesting that the manager doesn\u2019t like Rodrygo and doesn\u2019t play him, but he made him start in this game. Xabi also spoke on player\u2019s future and what he\u2019s planning with him.<\/p>\n
Xabi Alonso\u2019s reign at Real Madrid is off to a flying start as the new manager secured his second straight La Liga victory, guiding Los Blancos to a comfortable 3-0 win over Oviedo FC on Sunday night.<\/p>\n
While reports had suggested Alonso was not a big admirer of Rodrygo and might limit his role, the Spanish coach put those rumors to rest by starting the Brazilian forward in this fixture. Rodrygo repaid the faith with a strong performance that earned praise from his manager.<\/p>\n
\u201cRodrygo played a good game. I liked him and I\u2019m happy. Rodrygo is one of us, we need all the players this season,\u201d Alonso said after the match, making his stance clear on the 23-year-old\u2019s importance to the squad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
