Club career

Rodríguez began her career with Boca Juniors. In February 2018, she moved to Spanish club Santa Teresa,[4] but returned to Boca in the following year.
On 9 March 2019, Rodríguez scored the first official goal of Boca Juniors women's team playing in La Bombonera.[5][6] In August, she and another 17 players of the club signed their first professional contracts.[7]
On 2 January 2023, Rodríguez joined Brazilian club Palmeiras.[8] On 11 September 2024, she rescinded her contract with the club,[9] and agreed to a short-term deal with Santos just hours later.[10]
International career
edit
Rodríguez represented Argentina at the 2015 South American U-20 Women's Championship.[11] She made her debut with the full side on 7 April 2018, replacing Ruth Bravo in a 3–0 win over Bolivia for the 2018 Copa América Femenina.
Rodríguez scored her first international goal on 10 April 2022, netting the winner in a 1–0 home success over Chile. In August, she was called up to the 2022 Copa América Femenina, and was the top scorer of the tournament with six goals, the first Argentine to do so since Marisol Medina in 2003.
In July 2023, Rodríguez was included in Germán Portanova's 23-women squad for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.
