Rodrygo made his Champions League bow in the 1-0 win over Galatasaray in Matchday 3 of the group stage. The Brazilian was also making his first start for Real Madrid and went on to complete 82 minutes of the game. At the final whistle, Rodrygo commented: "I found out today that I was playing and I didn't expect it. I was very nervous but I enjoyed myself. I'm going to keep working day in, day out, but you've got to let time decide everything. I'm really happy to have been given the opportunity to live out a dream".



"At Real Madrid every match is very difficult. My teammates and Zidane told me to enjoy myself and do my defensive work".



Demands

"Real Madrid always have to win, especially in the Champions League. Zidane is a coach who has won the Champions Leagues three times and we are behind him. Whenever you play in the Real Madrid jersey, you have to enjoy it and give everything, and that's what I've done".
