Real Madrid MVP reveals what fuels him after derby win: ‘When this time of the season comes…’ When the pressure rises, some players fade, and others take control. Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr. continues to prove he belongs in the latter category.
In one of the most intense fixtures of the season, the Brazilian forward once again delivered, leading Real Madrid to a dramatic 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid . The derby at the Santiago Bernabeu had everything – intensity, momentum swings, and moments of real quality. But it was Vinicius who ultimately made the difference.
His brace not only brought Madrid back into the game but also sealed the win, underlining his growing influence in decisive matches. Happy with the performance After the final whistle, Vinicius reflected on both the performance and the collective effort shown by the team. Speaking about how Madrid approached the game and their ability to respond after conceding, he said, “I’m very happy with the match we played and how we controlled it from the start.
We conceded a goal, but we are evolving and working hard for matches like these. “I’m a very happy Madridista today because of the victory, the goals, and the fact that the fans can enjoy it so much. “It’s a derby, and Madrid always wins,” he said on Real Madrid TV .
