Foden v Rodri: England’s maestro and Spain’s metronome set for battle
Manchester City teammates will go head-to-head in Berlin on Sunday with superiority crucial to the final outcome
The Euro 2024 final can be cast as a showdown between two playmakers of England and Spain who differ in styles and can each write the story of which nation will end as the continent’s champion on Sunday.
Phil Foden is the firefly maestro of the half-turn who drifts between the front and midfield lines to prompt and trigger England’s attacking play. Rodri is a deeper-lying metronome who initiates Spain forays from near to the rearguard and then pads forward to continue knitting the team pattern.
