the first round of the new season's champions league continued in the early morning of september 19th, beijing time. premier league champions manchester city faced serie a champions inter milan at home. this replay of the 2022-2023 champions league final ended in 0-0, with the two strong teams each taking 1 point.

in the champions league final on june 11, 2023, manchester city defeated inter milan 1-0 and won the first champions league in team history. midfielder rodri scored the only goal of the game. in this game, although rodri played the whole game, he was still recovering from the injury in the european cup final and had not returned to his best condition.

as the best player of the 2022-2023 champions league and the best player of the 2024 european cup, rodri has even become a little tired of war recently, expressing concerns about the new champions league format with a significantly longer schedule and other competition tasks. in an interview, rodri said: "we are close to a strike, which is the general opinion of the players. if the players play at their highest level, the number of games a year should be between 40 and 50. after exceeding this number, the players' performance will inevitably decline because they cannot maintain normal physical condition. but this year, we may have to play 70 or even 80 games."

although haaland is in excellent form recently, scoring 9 goals for manchester city in 4 premier league games, the match against old rivals inter milan once again proved that he is often a master at bullying weak teams. last season's serie a champion and the previous season's champions league runner-up inter milan are no weak team.
