Double and warning from Vinícius: “This is my moment of the season”
Vinicius Junior He was once again decisive in a big game. The Brazilian scored a double in the victory of the real Madrid 3-2 in the derby against Atlético de Madrid and left a phrase that summarizes his present: “When this moment of the season arrives, I always improve.”
“I’m very happy because I’ve worked all season for games like these. And when this moment comes… I don’t know what happens to me, but I always improve. I always score and give assists. The president, Florentino Pérez, always tells me that I have to score two goals, and today I scored two. They go for him,” he expressed with a smile on Realmadrid TV.
Beyond his individual performance, Vinícius highlighted the collective performance of the team, which managed to win a demanding duel. “I am very happy with the match we played. We controlled it from the beginning, although we conceded a goal. We are evolving and working hard for matches like these, so that the Madridistas leave happy with a victory,” he analyzed.
The winger also valued group work and prior preparation: “The credit belongs to everyone: the coach, the players and the fans. For the work we did during the week. We went to Manchester, we won and defended well, and here we were clear about the plan from the beginning. That made the difference.”
Finally, he regretted the break due to the FIFA date, just when the team is going through a great moment. “It’s a shame to stop now. The best thing would have been to continue because we are on a good streak. But we are going with the national teams… I hope we all return without injuries, because the most important stretch of the season is coming,” he concluded.
