Manchester City face Real Madrid in the Champions League Round of 16 and Rodrigo Hernandez will be called to go up against Casemiro a few months after departing Atletico Madrid.
The Spain international has recalled a strong challenge from the Brazilian midfielder in his first ever game at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
"I said, 'now I know what it is about'," Rodri told Jorge Valdano.
The first game between the two sides will take place at the Santiago Bernabeu on February 26, with the second leg set for March 17 at the Etihad Stadium.

Casemiro is way better than you. You havent brought anything spectacular to Man City midfield. Pep is too blind to see. Fernandinho should please play in that position while young Garcia take gis position at the defence.
