Rodriguez he's just got a wand of a left foot it's as simple as that he can put the ball on a sixs from 50 plus yards or whipping across right onto the toe of a striker needless to say he's also got an eye for a spectacular goal or two himself so this defense won't be giving him much time on the ball if they want to POS POS a result out of this okay interesting now the cross on the volley oh good delivery almost the perfect outcome it's good delivery though clearly trying to draw the goalkeeper into an area he doesn't want to come Aras Aras plays It Forward he's got options out wide padr oh
