A final as tedious as the one this Sunday, in which nothing happened until the clock made it unavoidable, is the ideal type of match to observe calm footballers; those who make regularity an art. The best example of them, as it was in its day Sergio Busquets, is today Rodri Hernández, a plethoric organizer who has the innate ability to alter the rhythm of the game to his liking; quality that only a select few possess.
Against Croatia, when nobody shone among the monotony, it was he who always gave a clean start to the duo of French central defenders, who paired with Gavi y Fabian before the attacks died quickly in the last third of the field, who warned the Guadianesco from afar Livakovicwho was the counterweight to the rapid Balkan transitions and, above all, who endured the endless quality of Modric.

What’s more, his great match was awarded by UEFA with the MVP of the end.
