Tierney ended up being subbed off on 76 minutes after a tough tackle during his side’s stunning 2-0 win against the Spaniards on Tuesday night.

Thankfully for Arsenal fans, Odegaard saw out his match on Saturday but his Norway team were spanked 3-0 by Rodri and co.

Still Gooners online accused Rodri of trying to take out the Arsenal pair as the title race continues.

One said: “Rodri has tried to injure Odegaard and Tierney within a few days.”

Another added: “That’s both Odegaard and Tierney Rodri’s managed to take out during this international break.

“If I was a conspiracy theorist I’d go as far as saying that’s more than coincidental.”

One fumed: “Wait a minute. Rodri injured Tierney just as he tried to injure Odegaard a couple days ago as well?”

Another raged: “Rodri again? Odegaard just escaped a tackle days ago, now it’s Tierney.”

Spain emerged 3-0 winners against Norway but were stunned in a 2-0 loss to Scotland.

Although Tierney had to watch the final quarter of the match from the bench having been forced off following a tackle with Rodri.

Scotland recorded victory over the Spaniards for the first time in nearly FOUR DECADES but their tactics were slammed by Rodri.

He told Viaplay: “It’s the way they play, you have to respect, but for me it’s a bit rubbish. Always wasting time, provoking you, always they fall.

“For me, this is not football. For the speed of the sport, you have to move on. The referee has to take on this, but he says nothing.

“It’s a bit frustrating because we want to win. It’s difficult if it’s waste time, waste time.

“But they have their weapons. We have to use our weapons and we will learn for the next time.”
