With all that on his shoulders, Vinícius has been caught before the classic in an image that quickly went viral. He was seen at the hairdresser's in a video that has sparked conversation. He appears relaxed, humming, showing that he is not worried about what's coming.

As is usually the case, he went to the hairdresser's of a teammate's brother, Eduardo Camavinga. Therefore, the Brazilian wanted to debut a new look in an important match. When we see him board the bus heading to Bernabéu, we'll know what hairstyle he chose.

Vinícius Needs to Step Up in the classic Against Atlético

In recent days, what happened in Butarque between Vinícius and Modric has been widely discussed. The Croatian acted as captain and scolded him for taking too long to get back to defend a play. Something that didn't go unnoticed and has caused many opinions.

This season, we are seeing a Madrid that splits in two when attacked. Despite Ancelotti's insistence on defensive solidarity and collective commitment as the key to success. But on the wing, Vinícius is not providing the help the full-back needs.

We already know that Bernabéu doesn't usually let these things pass and will pass judgment tonight. If Real Madrid wins and convinces, everything will be forgotten with the Brazilian. But if they don't get the 3 points and he doesn't perform well, the stands could demand explanations.
