Rodrygo, after injury: “It's one of the hardest days of my life”
“One of the hardest days of my life. How much I always feared exactly this injury… Maybe life has been a little cruel to me lately… I don't know if I deserve it, but why complain? I experienced so many wonderful things that I also didn't deserve,” begins the Brazilian's statement, according to sportal.bg.
Then he continued:
“A big obstacle has appeared in my life and career, which for a while will not allow me to do what I love most. I am out of the game until the end of the season with my club and I will miss the World Cup with my country's national team – everyone knows how much this dream means to me.
All I can do is be strong, as always. To me, there is nothing new in this. Thank you all for your prayers, messages and support! You are very important to me. Although the moment is very difficult, I promise: I will not stop here. I believe that many more incredible things will follow, with which I will be able to delight all those who believe in me. This is just a coming soon…
God is still in control of everything,” the footballer concludes his message,” the emotional speech of the Brazilian ended.
