One question, is the English Premier League better or the Spanish La Liga? Now the next question, the Euro is bigger or the European Champions League? The answer is difficult. There is no answer to such a question. So when Rodri of Spain and Manchester City won the Ballon d'Or, the biggest individual award in world football, there was no question as to why he won it.

Then such a question should not have come, but it did. Especially this time, the Ballon d'Or program held in Paris was a kind of prayer.

Real Madrid boycotted the event. His representative did not attend the event. Real thought, this award will be won by its Brazilian player Vinicius Junior. Vinicius won the Spanish La Liga and the European Champions League for Real. He was also chosen as the best player of this tournament. A few hours before the start of the award ceremony, information was leaked that Rhodri was winning. 

Is there any doubt about Pep Guardiola's knowledge of this game among the current generation of football coaches? no In his language, among all the players available in football now, one of the best in the midfield is Rodri. In the race for the

award, Rodri stood first, followed by two players from Real. One of them was Venetian. Another Judd Bellingham. City are four consecutive English champions. It is said that it is easier to win the league once, it is more difficult to defend the award.

City has done this consistently. And if any player had a big role in this work, it was Rhodri. Another player who contributed a lot when City won the league last season, Rodri. Spain won the Euros in Germany. There was also doubt that Spain would win the Euro. But won and there was a big reason for that, a player like Rhodri. He is a midfielder and a midfielder, his specialty is defensive.

As far as his playing style is concerned, the fact that he has the most advantage is his strong and tall body. Can tackle continuously, steal the ball from the opposition player. There is no other force in front of him to take control of the ball in the air. Whenever the team begins to weave an attack, in a way it starts with Rhodri. The other will play better under his intense pressure. Can also play as a central back if desired. The role and position that Rhodri plays in, players rarely become stars. Rhodri became a star. Now he won the Ballon d'Or.

There is another interesting episode from here. The last few decades have been dominated by Spanish teams and players. Not only did Spain win the World Cup once, they also won the Euros twice. But none of that team won the Ballon d'Or. That Spanish team is still considered the 'golden generation'. But none of them were as lucky as Rhodri.
