Rodri celebrates his go-ahead goal with Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden during the English Premier League football match between Sheffield United and Manchester City at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, northern England on August 27, 2023. AFPPIX: Manchester City extended their perfect start to the Premier League season as Rodri sealed a dramatic 2-1 win against Sheffield United after Erling Haaland scored once and missed a penalty for the champions on Sunday.
But Rodri saved City with a blistering strike three minutes later as Pep Guardiola's side moved to the top of the table after a third successive victory. Guardiola's rehabilitation will have been aided by the knowledge that City can thrive in his absence. City should have gone ahead in the 36th minute when Julian Alvarez's cross was blocked by John Egan's out-stretched arm.
City responded superbly and regained the lead three minutes later when Rodri lashed into the top corner from 12 yards after Walker redeemed himself by winning back possession outside the United area.
