Arsenal fans all say the same thing as Man City ace Rodri ‘tries to kill Odegaard’ in Spain vs Norway clash

ARSENAL fans all said the same thing after seeing Man City star Rodri “try to kill” Martin Odegaard with an awful tackle.

The shocking incident occurred in Saturday’s Euro 2024 qualifier between Spain and Norway.

Playmaker Odegaard is arguably the best No10 in the Premier League after leading Arsenal to the brink of a first title since 2004.

Meanwhile, anchorman Rodri is also considered to be the best in his position in England’s top flight.

And supporters were treated to a fascinating midfield battle between the star duo this evening.

But things turned nasty when Rodri wiped Odegaard out with a brutal tackle in Spain’s penalty area.

The City star crunched into his Arsenal opponent with staggering force from behind as Odegaard was darting towards goal.

And Norway players were convinced they were about to be awarded a penalty.

However, the referee deemed Rodri’s brutal effort a clean foul.

And play was allowed to continue despite Odegaard being left in agony on the ground.

Rodri’s antics enraged Arsenal fans, who feel Man City are their only rivals left in the title race.

One said: “Rodri is trying to kill Odegaard.”

Another declared: “I hope Odegaard crunches Rodri back.”

One joked: “Arsenal should press charges.”

Another added: “He gets away with such tackles even in the league.”

Spain ran out 3-0 winners as a strike from Dani Olmo was followed up by a late brace from Newcastle flop Joselu.

That made it an ideal start for new manager Luis de la Fuente and his surprising choice of captain, Alvaro Morata.
