Madrid's "Real" defender James Rodriguez claims that his goal against "Almeria" reminded him of the 2014 World Cup match with the Uruguayan national team.

"I always try to score similar goals during training sessions. Thank God, my shot was accurate. However, my main goal is to help the team achieve better results," - concluded the defender.

The first season in Madrid is going very well for the 23-year-old footballer. J. Rodriguez scored 16 goals and made 11 assists in 40 matches.
