As he is usually, Vinicius Junior was one of the most important protagonists for Real Madrid in their 3-2 victory over Manchester City in the first stage of their play-off round draw. The Brazilian superstar was a regular threat on the left wing, and that culminated in him who offered the game-winning assist to Jude Bellingham.
According to the sport, Vinicius spoke with Movistar+ at the game and he proudly expressed his own performance at the Etihad Stadium.
“The competition was not bad. I could play a great game. It doesn't matter who is the best player of the game, we are here to place the name of Madrid at the top. There are still many games left and the return bone is always complicated. We have to follow this line and defend as we defended today, so that our fans can live a magical night. “
Vinicius was also asked about the banner who showed supporters of Manchester City before the kick-off, to which last year were referred to the failed Ballon d'Or-Achtervolging of the 24-year-old.
“Yes, I have seen the banner, but when the opposite fans do things, they give me strength to play a great game, and here I did it. I try not to do anything, but they know our history and they know everything we can do in this competition. I think it was the fifth time we came to play. It is always very cold, but we have to continue in this mind. “
Finally, Vinicius spoke about his future in Real Madrid. In recent months he has regularly been associated with a relocation of big money to Saudi Arabia, while there has also been speculation about his contract situation.
“I don't know anything either. I haven't spoken to anyone yet. I think I should talk to the president. I hope I can stay here for a long time. This is my home. “
