Frustrating evening for Vinicius. The Brazilian striker was however one of the most active elements of Real Madrid during the Clasico victory against FC Barcelona (2-1), without being directly decisive. But the Madrilenian also distinguished himself outside the game, multiplying the clashes and tense exchanges.
The most notable episode of the evening remains his heated altercation with his trainer Xabi Alonso. Replaced in the 71st minute, Vinicius did not hide his frustration, attacking the Spanish technician before heading straight to the locker room, then returning to sit on the bench. A little later, he also stood out against Lamine Yamal, whom he provoked by accusing him of “always passing the ball backwards”. The two players almost came to blows before being separated.
“Whine”
According to Mundo Deportivothe tension did not end there. Vinicius would have had heated exchanges with two other Barcelonans. As Pedri challenged a referee's decision, the Brazilian approached to throw: “It’s not the captain! It's not the captain! »insinuating that he did not have to address the official.
When Pedri tried to calm him down, Vinicius replied sharply: “Don’t touch me!” Don't let him touch me! He always talks, he always talks! » Jude Bellingham then intervened to calm things down. Finally, facing Ferran Torres, the tone rose again: “He always, always talks!” Speak here! Speak here! » before concluding with a scathing “whiny!” ». An evening to forget for Vinicius.
