Jubilations Rocks Ethihad Stadium as goodnews has been announced about RODRI Red Card Against Nothinham Forest Victory
But fans of Manchester City will be able to see Rodri play again after just two games. Why? Let’s look at it.
Why Rodri can play again after only two games
Well, because Manchester City’s No. 16 got his red card in the Premier League, he will only be banned from playing in games within England.
Rodri will miss the Carabao Cup game against Newcastle United on Wednesday.
The 27-year-old will then not be able to play against Wolves on Saturday in the Premier League.
After the Premier League game against Arsenal on Sunday, October 8, Rodri’s home ban is over.
But Pep Guardiola will be able to use the Spain international when Manchester City plays RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, October 4. This is just before they go to the Emirates Stadium.
As was already said, Rodri is only banned for domestic games because he got a red card in a Premier League game. This means that he will still be able to play in European games.
If the £62.8 million Spanish player had been sent off against Red Star Belgrade, for example, he would have been banned for three European games but still able to play in Premier League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup games, so it works both ways.
Guardiola and Manchester City will miss Rodri a lot at home, but the Madrid-born mastermind will be ready for what looks like it will be a tough test against RB Leipzig.
With all due respect, the German team is Manchester City’s hardest opponent in Group G, ahead of Red Star Belgrade and Young Boys. This is good news for fans who want the Citizens to win their UEFA Champions League group.
