Rodri criticized Scotland’s tactics in Spain’s 2-0 loss. Rodri, a member of Manchester City, criticized Scotland’s strategy following La Roja’s 2-0 loss to Steve Clarke’s team. A goal from Scott McTominay gave the hosts a surprising victory.
Rodri, however, wasn’t pleased with how Scotland played. After his team’s disappointing performance, the defensive midfielder said to the reporters (per The Scotsman): “It’s the way they play. In the end, I find it to be a little pointless because they are constantly squandering time. You might say that they irritate you. They constantly fail, so to me, this isn’t football.
He continued, “But the official has to take part in this and he’ll say nothing. For the speed of the sport, you have to move on. Because we want to succeed and it’s challenging because you waste time, it can be a little frustrating. However, we must use our firearms and will get a lesson in the future.
Spain defeated Norway in their prior match by a score of 3-0. However, Luis De La Fuente’s side suffered a severe setback as a result of their performance against Manchester United. Mikel Merino, Dani Ceballos, and Rodri of Manchester City began the match in midfield.

After the game, Gvardiol said the following about his interaction with Pep Guardiola: “I extended my hand to Guardiola and complimented him on moving on in the Champions League. The legendary coach Guardiola said a few things to me, but I’ll keep them to myself.
There have been rumors that Gvardiol will leave the Bundesliga team this summer. Along with City, Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Liverpool have also been mentioned as potential destinations for the massive central defender.
