context_page_description: Cristian Gabriel Rodríguez Barotti is a Uruguayan footballer who plays as a left winger for Peñarol.
  Having received the nickname Cebolla from his Peñarol days, from his father, he is well known for his speed and technical ability. He played several seasons in Portugal with Benfica and Porto, and also competed professionally in France, Spain, Italy, Brazil and Argentina.
  Rodríguez won 110 caps for Uruguay, representing the country in two World Cups and four Copa América tournaments and winning the 2011 edition of the latter.
context_section_description: On 28 May 2012, Rodríguez signed for Atlético Madrid for four seasons after being released by Porto. He scored his first two goals for his new team in the Europa League group stage, against Hapoel Tel Aviv FC (3–0 away win) and FC Viktoria Plzeň (home); in the latter, he netted the game's only goal through a thunderous left-foot shot in the 93rd minute.
  On 20 January 2015, Rodríguez moved to Parma F.C. until the end of the season. Less than two months later, however, due to the Italian club's precarious financial situation, he joined Brazil's Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense also on loan.
  Rodríguez left Grêmio on 8 May 2015, after struggling with injuries and totalling less than 80 minutes of action.
