Thanks to his thunderous strike in our deserved 2-1 win away to Sheffield United, Rodrigo has claimed the first prize of 2023/24.
The Spaniard’s Bramall Lane rocket represented his second goal of the term following his fine strike in our 3-0 opening Premier League win over Burnley.
However his effort against Paul Heckingbottom’s side has earned him the award - which is available to watch in the video above!
In match where City enjoyed the most of possession, Erling Haaland‘s header broke the deadlock in Yorkshire before the Blades’ Jayden Bogle equalised in the 85th minute.
Undeterred from the hosts’ leveller, Pep Guardiola‘s side went immediately on the offensive and regained the lead when Rodrigo instinctively fired Phil Foden‘s cut-back into the top corner.
Congratulations to the 27-year for winning August’s Nissan Goal of the Month award!
