Vinicius Jr, the exceptional goal (video)

After its defeat in the Champions League at Benfica Lisbon (4-2), Real Madrid must react this Sunday against Rayo Vallecano, to avoid letting FC Barcelona fly to the top of the standings.

While the start of the match was marked by the injury exit of Jude Bellingham, the Merengues opened the scoring with a personal exploit from Vinicius Jr. With three defenders in front of him, the Brazilian found a way to hit and slip the ball under the crossbar (see below).

Good Vinicius

Vinicius Jr confirms that he is in good shape at the start of the year. He had already scored against FC Barcelona in the Super Cup before scoring a goal against AS Monaco in the Champions League, with 1 goal and 3 assists.
