Very upset on the pitch then on the bench, Vinicius did not calm down when returning to the locker room after Real Madrid’s victory over Mallorca (3-0), Thursday in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup. The Brazilian continued to insult opposing players to the point of having to be restrained by members of the Madrid staff.
Real Madrid’s victory against Mallorca (3-0), Thursday in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup, did not appease Vinicius. The Brazilian winger appeared very angry throughout the match, especially against his best enemy, Pablo Maffeo, with whom he had already clashed regularly in the past.
The right-back’s declarations assuring that he would knock out the Brazilian in 10 seconds in a boxing match, a few days before the match, increased tensions and the reunion was particularly heated on the pitch.
Held by two staff members
These materialized on the ground through provocations of all kinds and a few gentle words (“go home, you suck”, said Vini Jr). The end of the match even turned into a general crowd following a little tap from Jude Bellingham behind the head of Pablo Maffeo after Madrid’s third goal.
-Then on the bench, Vinicius Jr jumped towards the field to join the chaos. And the Brazilian took time to relieve the pressure. Images from Spanish media Jijantes show his stormy return to the locker room after the Merengue qualification.
Furious, the player vituperates towards opposing players, including Manu Morlanes who seems to have no problem throwing a little fuel on the fire. Vinicius’ anger even forced two members of the Madrid staff to push him away so that he could head to the locker room. At the end of the meeting, the two camps blamed each other for the origin of the tensions on the ground. Pablo Maffeo focused the criticism of the Madrilenians while Mallorca pointed the finger at Raul Asensio as responsible for the stormy end of the match after sending provocative kisses towards the opposing bench.
“I tell you as a player who comes from the Madrid academy and I have a special affection for this club, but in the end we are the ones who are seen as the bad guys and it shouldn’t be like that “, regretted Oscar Mascarell, midfielder from Mallorca. “We come to play and the rivalries on the pitch must stay on the pitch but there are times when they are the ones looking for you and we feel like we are the only ones looking for confrontation. It’s not appropriate, the cameras are there and it’s clear it’s on both sides, that’s why the match got heated.”
