Rodri believes his Manchester City side are in for a 'huge challenge' when they face Liverpool in the semi-finals of the FA Cup tomorrow afternoon and has questioned the scheduling of his club's matches.
Just days after drawing with the Reds in the Premier League at the Etihad, City booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals following a 1-0 aggregate win over Atletico Madrid. The second-leg at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium finished 0-0 on Wednesday night.
Rodri believes City showed their mental resilience in Madrid as Pep Guardiola's side came through a gruelling quarter-final tie to set-up a final four date with Real Madrid. However, treble-chasing City may also be left to count the cost with Kevin De Bruyne and Kyle Walker suffering knocks during Wednesday’s bruising encounter.
