This is a man who needs surgery btw 😳 #football #Soccer #fyp #foryou #tiktokcampaign France 0-2 Spain. Yamal Instagram story. Mbappe special. For example, nothing. Porro goal. Dani Olmo. Rodri. Cubarsi. Oyarzabal goal.

Rotary showed exactly why he is the greatest defensive midfielder of all time, and exactly why you can never leave the front four all on their own. Put it this way. Attack wins you games, defense gives you confidence to continue winning, and the midfield facilitates anything and everything in between. It's why you never talk about Frances double pivot. Whether that be true of many or co-naing next to Adrienne Rabio, it's the fact that they just give the ball to Frances front four and let them do everything because eventually they think that they're the ones to eventually win the games. But it is so important to start that from midfield. That's why you see why Rotary is basically the main guy that Spain builds around. It's not just the fact that he is so press resistant, that he wins the ball back so well. It's also the fact that he starts those combinations really well from defense into attack and is able to carry that forward through the likes of Danny Olmo. The way that he is able to evade pressure and even move forward if necessary, because we know that this guy has an absolutely incredible long strike. He has the energy to win the ball back, as you would normally expect from a defense midfielder. And he has the composure to keep things moving. That is not just something that's synonymous with Spain right now, but Spain in their prime as well. It's not just about being capable to do all of those things. It's about always producing that every single time, which we haven't seen enough of. And that's why when France go up against a proper team like Spain is why they struggle. And of course, as you would expect, Rotary controlled the game. And he's just a complete athlete and it goes to show maybe that Ballendor was justified all along. By the way, this is a man who apparently needs surgery, especially after tearing his ACL and was out for a whole season. What a freak, man, holy hell. I'm actually so jealous of Man City, man.
