Video: Vinicius Jr leaves Real Madrid vs Barcelona visibly angry after being subbed off

Real Madrid and Barcelona are the protagonists of one of the most fast-paced games in recent times, and one of the standout players in the match was Vinicius Jr. However, coach Xabi Alonso decided to substitute him, a move that did not sit well with the Brazilian forward.

The striking aspect of this incident wasn’t the substitution itself, but that the player, visibly annoyed by it, decided to head straight to the locker room. Minutes later, he was seen back with his teammates on the bench.

The former Flamengo player was one of the standout figures in the match, playing a key role in his team’s second goal. Nevertheless, the coach felt it was time for a change up front, a decision that clearly didn’t sit well with Vini.

Real Madrid’s attack was one of the main keys to turning the result in their favor, with goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham, even managing to miss a penalty while leading 2-1.
