Arsenal receive Martin Odegaard boost after Rodri horror tackle left fans raging

Arsenal midfielder Martin Odegaard wasn't showing any ill-effects from Rodri's horror tackle as he completed the full 90 minutes for Norway against Georgia on Tuesday.

Odegaard was left fuming with referee Benoit Bastien after being wiped out by Spain and Manchester City star Rodri in Norway's first Euro 2024 qualifier, while Arsenal fans were concerned for their captain's safety. With 10 games remaining in their Premier League season - including a trip to City's Etihad Stadium in April - Mikel Arteta's side will need everyone available and on form.

Arsenal's captain looked in pain after Rodri's challenge, but was able to finish the match in Malaga. Another 90 minutes followed just three days later, in what many will see as a positive for Odegaard's capacity for recovery.
