Real Madrid Confidencial Vinícius dedicated the winning goal to a very special friend, revealed
The Brazilian from Real Madrid celebrated his goal in a rather special way, and the reason is already known
Real Madrid achieved a hard-fought but crucial 2-1 victory over RCD Mallorca at Santiago Bernabéu. The match was marked by the brilliant performances of Arda Güler and Vinícius, who were decisive in the comeback after a difficult start. RCD Mallorca took the lead on the scoreboard and, to make matters worse, Sánchez Martínez disallowed as many as three goals.
The match began with RCD Mallorca well positioned, surprising Real Madrid with a goal from Muriqi in the 18th minute after a corner kick from Pablo Torre. In the 37th minute, Güler equalized with a header after a pass from Dean Huijsen, unleashing euphoria at Bernabéu.
Vinícius reminded of his best version
Just a minute later, Vinícius finished a solo play to make it 2-1. The Brazilian, who had passing options, carried the ball for a few yards (meters) and managed to beat Leo Román with a long-range, angled shot.
In addition to the goal, Vinícius, who returned to the starting line-up after being a substitute in Oviedo, stood out for his constant work. It seems that something has changed in the Brazilian, as his attitude is much better than last season's.
Nevertheless, Xabi Alonso's warning has also had an effect. In fact, despite his good first half, Vinícius dropped his level in the second half, which led to his substitution by Rodrygo Goes.
Vinícius's never-before-seen celebration
After the goal, Vinícius first celebrated with his teammates. However, his special celebration came seconds later. The Brazilian, mimicking a padel racket swing, dedicated his goal to a very close friend.
According to Rodra, a journalist from ESPN, the Brazilian dedicated the goal to Juan Lebrón, one of the best players on the padel circuit and a close friend of the winger.
"Vini's celebration has an explanation. He dedicated the goal to his friend and padel player Juan Lebrón. Vini is trying his hand at padel," the journalist explained.
The truth is that Vinícius has already been seen on more than one occasion playing padel. Moreover, Juan Lebrón always has kind words whenever he has been asked about the footballer.
