The Brazilian winger’s sending off towards the end of the match caused much discussion when he was seen pushing Valencia goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski in the head. However, despite being numerically inferior, Los Blancos came from behind to secure a spectacular victory thanks to goals from Luka Modric and Jude Bellingham.
The Spanish champions trailed at half-time thanks to Hugo Duro’s goal in the 27th minute. In the tunnel, Vincius was caught on television cameras giving an intense speech to his teammates as he predicted his team’s late victory.
A king’s speech
Movistar cameras first filmed Mbappé saying: “We must respond with purpose“. The Brazilian then replied: “ Of course, when they call a foul. We score a goal and they shit themselves. A little bit more, a little bit more and that’s it. »
Los Blancos will be back in action on Monday, as they take on Dep Minera in the Copa del Rey round of 32 away. Vinicius will be eligible to play.
