Antonio Rudiger, the soon-to-be Real Madrid center-back, has broken his silence following Chelsea’s heartbreaking Emirates FA Cup defeat to Liverpool on Saturday afternoon.
Rudiger highlighted his elite defensive qualities and offered his new employers a taste of what they will be witnessing on a daily basis from next season with a masterclass showing in the heart of the Blues’ defense.
Rudiger acknowledged his sadness in his side’s loss in a tweet seen by Sports Brief, but he was quick to congratulate his squad for their courageous performance at Wembley.
He was able to hold the Reds’ ferocious onslaught at bay, but it was too late as the Blues succumbed to another penalty shootout defeat to Liverpool.
