Manchester City midfield enforcer Rodri has hit back at Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone after he suggested that defending is a dying art in English football.
The Argentine, who has been in charge of Atletico since 2011, made the claim following City's pulsating 4-4 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last Sunday.
City thought they had scooped all three points courtesy of Rodri's deflected effort in the 86th minute, only for Chelsea to draw level in the fifth minute of injury time, earning a point through former Blues youngster Cole Palmer.
Though, at times, it was a nail-biting encounter for those invested in City or Chelsea, it was a gripping watch for those who were neutrals.
