Manchester City: Standing Ovation for De Bruyne, Rodri replayed

This evening will undoubtedly remain in the memory of Manchester City supporters. Kevin de Bruyne was honored for his last at the Etihad Stadium between a tifo in his effigy when he entered the lawn, and a beautiful standing ovation when it was released against Bournemouth (3-1).

13 minutes later, another important moment intervened since Rodri returned to competition by making his first entry into play since his return from injury. Entered in place of Erling Halaand, the Ballon d'Or 2024 had not walked a lawn since September 22 and its rupture of the crossed ligament.
