Rodrigo was presented with her own Chelsea home shirt by the left-back, with the jersey even having her name and the number eight printed on the back.

Chelsea also shared a video to Instagram of Rodrigo on the pitch at full-time.

She filmed herself for the fans after watching the 1-1 draw with Liverpool.
