Vinicius (20 years old) has that I don't know what gift for Real Madrid, who sees him in the eleven and is happy without knowing for sure, because surely not even he knows, what will happen when unwrapping it. But first, and more in this downcast Madrid, it is a breath of joy and desire. In the Pizjuán, After four games in a row on the bench, Zidane put him in the eleven and the carioca played as convinced that if he did well he would not get out of it. It was the best and It caused a 0-1 that was conceded in Movistar and that the referee denied him in the minutes.
Despite this, you have to target Vini three goals, this carom and an assist so far this season. The summer song around him lasts all winter and repeats in its refrain that his aim misses, a catchphrase that is not without reason but is not completely right either. And his League proves it, not only because two of his targets and Sevilla's rebound have been in the tournament, but also because the significance of these interventions: 9 points. From the first day, Madrid has been successful and failed, but the former Flamengo has maintained his degree of influence.
It premiered on September 30, during the visit of the Valladolid. He entered the field in 58 'and in 65' he celebrated what would be the only goal of the night. He did not delay in excess to repeat success, on October 4 with a beautiful hit against Levante, 0-1 from 0-2 that afternoon. For the third hit we had to wait more, yesterday at 55 'at the Pizjuán, with a Madrid threatened by another rosco like the one on Tuesday in Kiev. That triple contribution from Vinicius is worth 9 points, We said, and it is a treasure for Zidane's men, who are now fighting more for third place than for the leadership.
Vinicius's stats on Saturday point to a very attacker-style performance, somewhat lackluster lately. Pressed, He registered an 88% success rate in the pass, created 3 occasions (the most), did 5 good dribbles (the most), received 3 fouls (the most, with Nacho and Lucas) and committed 4 (the most, with Rodrygo, a sign of his defensive work). In his debit there are 14 losses, a lesser figure if compared to the 9 points he has achieved in the League.
