– The Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid match in the Champions League witnessed yesterday night a negative record for the Brazilian star Vinicius Junior, where he was intervened 12 times from the Roqueblancos players, the largest number of interventions to which any player is exposed in one match in the tournament this season.
Nevertheless, Vinicius continued his offensive attempts and opportunities for his team, in a confrontation that was full of clubs and high pressure on the part of Atletico.
This statistic highlights the important role that the Brazilian wing plays in the Merengue squad, as it has become a major goal for opponents’ defenses who seek to stop its danger in any possible way.
Real Madrid lost a clean goal against Atletico, in the second leg of the round of 16, but it qualified for the quarter -finals of the Champions League on penalties.
