Once again, Vinicius Junior failed to keep his cool. Present on the pitch during Real Madrid’s trip to Valence FC on Friday evening (1-2, 12th day of La Liga), the Brazilian pulled the pin in front of the opposing goalkeeper and received a direct red card, synonymous with expulsion ( 79th). A premature exit which, if it did not prevent the Merengue from almost miraculously reversing the situation before winning, remains no less problematic.
Because Vinicius Junior’s behavior is not the most impeccable. Certainly, the player is the regular target of his opponents, but they know precisely that the Auriverde international is fragile in this respect and that he can lose his nerve very (too?) quickly. For Pierre Ménès, all this could become embarrassing, both for the player and Real Madrid.
“His behavior on the pitch is unbearable”
Saturday on his social networks, the former “Canal Football Club” broached the subject. “Vinicius is an excellent player, that’s undeniable, but his behavior on the pitch is unbearable. Last night he was sent off like a donkey and without the intervention of members of Real he would have attacked the referee when he received his red card. Eventually, it will become problematic for such an institution. He is unbearable. » A no-nonsense judgment before adding a little word concerning certain partners of Vinicius:
“But why is he targeted all the time and not Mbappé or Bellibgham? Because the opponents know that he is weak and that he will wire. »
Despite his behavioral problems, Vinicius Junior nonetheless remains one of the important men in his team. Behind Kylian Mbappé and his ten goals, he is Madrid’s second top scorer in La Liga since the start of the season (eight). He is also valuable for his partners since he has five assists to his credit, always in the championship. But his attitudes could end up tiring in high places. It’s up to him to try to correct that.
