The Real Madrid standout asserted that adversaries encounter significant challenges trying to contain him, crediting manager Carlo Ancelotti for implementing a tactical adjustment that has heightened his effectiveness. Vinicius Junior, primarily positioned as a winger, boasts 16 goals in 27 appearances across various competitions this season, along with eight assists.
In an interview with the club’s official website, the Brazilian international remarked, “I’m trying to help as much as I can, changing my game. I’m unstoppable because when I’m not playing well as a winger I go central and the opponents don’t know how to defend against me.”
Los Blancos have emerged as formidable contenders in the ongoing 2023/24 season. Securing the Spanish Super Cup with a 4-1 victory over Barcelona, with Vinicius netting a hat-trick, underscores their dominance. Leading the Spanish top-flight title race by seven points and progressing to the Champions League quarter-finals, their sole setback this season occurred against Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey round of 16, succumbing 4-2.
Ancelotti’s squad prepares for their next encounter on Saturday against Osasuna in a pivotal La Liga fixture.
