After his big disappointment at the 2024 Ballon d’Or, Vinicius promised to do more to further raise his level of play and perform better on the pitch.
Obviously the Brazilian international is doing his best to keep his promise.
A few weeks after his defeat at the 2024 Ballon d’Or, Vinicius is on cloud nine. He plays full matches and scores a lot of goals.
Good news for the Brazilian when we know how sad he was after his disappointment.
Moreover, many sports commentators hoped that the player would sink after Rodri’s coronation. This is not the case. The Madrid player strings together performances worthy of Cristiano Ronaldo or even Lionel Messi.
Vinicius Jr, who promised to do “even more” to convince his detractors that he deserved the Ballon d’Or, achieved some dazzling results, notably finding the post on a bright pass from Savinho (22nd) during the draw from Brazil to Venezuela (1-1), Thursday November 14, 2024 during qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, including a missed penalty from Vinicius.
The penalty missed by the Madrid striker does not take away from the XXL performance he delivered with his selection and with Real Madrid.
It is obvious that Vinicius is not affected by his disillusionment and this is good news for himself and for his fans who will be able to see a better version of the player throughout the matches.
