Rodrygo, MVP of the final: "I want to keep winning trophies with Real Madrid" | OneFootball

Rodrygo was voted MVP of the Copa del Rey final at La Cartuja. The Brazilian opened the scoring in the second minute and in the second half he completed his brace to seal a 2-1 win and clinch the trophy for the Whites. At the end of the clash against Osasuna, the forward expressed his delight at winning the trophy. He has now won every trophy possible with Real Madrid: “We were talking this week about how Real Madrid hadn't won this competition for a long time. I also just needed to win this one, so it was a very special day for me, with two goals. I'm delighted”.

“This was a trophy I wanted to win because it was the last one I needed to win and at the age of 22 I have already won everything possible. But I want to keep winning many more and win this cup many more times. It was the first one and I saw how special it was, the atmosphere was so special from the moment we came out to warm up.”

He scored the first goal against Cacereño “That day I prayed to God, because we began with a very difficult match in Cáceres, on a very difficult pitch to play on. I managed to score a goal and today I was able to round off this competition.”

The game “It's always good to get off to a winning start and scoring a goal after two minutes gives you even more confidence. We were playing well. We started badly in the second half, but then I got the second goal and we went on to win, and that's what counts.”

Vini Jr. “I always say how much I love playing with him, he’s a special player and we want him to keep it up.”

Celebration for the second goal “I dedicated it to Nacho, a kid I visited at Juegaterapia, which is a place that cares for children with cancer. I went over there to pay them a visit and give them a gift or two. He asked me to make the “I” for Ignacio if I scored, so the second goal was for him.”
