Now that was a real treat. Rodrygo has made no secret of the fact that Ronaldo Nazário was a big role model for him and he followed in his compatriot’s footsteps by moving to Real Madrid. And now he’s reminded him of the Brazilian legend with a brilliant solo.

When Ronaldo Nazário was healthy, he was unstoppable. He was nicknamed “O Fenómeno” and it’s clear why. His dribbling, his dribbling and his finishing were a joy to watch.

It’s a great pity his health didn’t hold out, because it’s said that without his injuries he would have been one of the top 3 players in history. At least now he is trying to pass on his magic and succeeding.

In Thursday’s Madrid derby, Real were trailing 0-1 at home from the 19th minute after Morata’s goal. Carlo Ancelotti had to send in “El chico de las remontadas”, the “boy of turnovers”. Rodrygo has proven himself to be a great joker on several occasions and he has proved it again.

In the 79th minute, he took the ball from Modric, evaded Witsel, flicked from right to left over Hermoso, then with a hint of a shot he dispossessed Savic and Molina and shocked Oblak with a shot to the bar. One of the most beautiful goals of his career.

Fans immediately thought of the video from the World Cup where Ronaldo was interviewing the Brazilian players. When it came to Rodrygo, the young winger groped Ronaldo’s golden legs at the end of the interview and greased his own, saying “to borrow some magic”. Apparently, it worked.

Real eventually made it to the Copa del Rey quarter-finals in extra time, first when Savic was needlessly sent off in the 99th minute and Benzema scored in the 104th minute.

Brazilian Vinícius added the insurance in the 121st minute after another beautiful solo effort. Real thus joined Osasuna, Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey semi-finals.
