Vitinha stands out a little more every day as one of the best field circles in Europe. This Sunday, the metronome of Paris Saint-Germain shone again in the club World Cup, scoring a goal against Atlético Madrid and winning, at the same time, the title of man of the match after the broad victory of his own (4-0).
In addition to its fundamental role in the Parisian passes circuit, the Portuguese is also illustrated by its altruism. While he could have offered a double thanks to a penalty obtained in additional time, he preferred to leave his attacker Kang-in transforming it. A gesture revealing the collective mentality of the former member of FC Porto.
Vitinha explains his choice
Asked after the meeting, the main interested party delivered the reasons for this choice. He said he wanted to enhance his attacking partners in order to put them in confidence.
“Today was me the shooter. But I'm not attacker, I don't need to score like an attacker, said Lusitanian at the Dazn microphone. If there are 3-0 or 4-0, a good score, we give the penalty to an attacker who needs to mark. This was the case for Kang-in »said the native of Santo Tirso.
