“I felt assured and scored thanks to a great pass from James”, explained the Brazilian.
Vinicius Jr. was key for Real Madrid as they beat Real Zaragoza (0-4) in the Copa del Rey last-16. The Brazilian star scored after rounding off some perfect play with James: “I am thrilled with the victory and I got a goal, which makes me feel really assured. I scored following a great pass from James and I am so thankful to him. We tried it in training and today it resulted in a goal. This was such an important win in the grand scheme of this season and it has boosted us”.
“Our concentration levels were the best element of a game we knew would be tough. We were extremely focused from the off to look for a goal in the first 15 minutes. We got it and then everyone relaxes a bit. The variety of the goal scorers gives us real confidence going into Saturday’s clash with Atlético de Madrid because it’s a huge game. I’m thrilled so many players got on the score sheet today”.
