Steve McManaman leaves fans baffled with "made in South Africa" remark in Chelsea defeat

Steve McManaman baffled fans for saying Rodrygo's second goal was "made in South Africa" during Real Madrid's 2-0 win over Chelsea on Tuesday.

Rodrygo, 22, opened the scoring for Los Blancos in the 57th minute as he finished off a ruthless attack, before completing his brace late on. It capped off a superb two-legged performance from Real, who progress into the semi-final where they will face either Manchester City or Bayern Munich in the last four.

However, McManaman provided a rather bizarre piece of analysis when describing Real's second goal. Uruguayan star Federico Valverde bamboozled through the heart of the Chelsea back-line, before squaring the ball on a plate for Rodrygo to finish into an empty net.
