Overview
- Brought on around the 63rd minute at the Carlos Tartiere, Vinícius assisted Kylian Mbappé and scored the third in Real Madrid's 0-3 win over Real Oviedo.
- He was booked for simulation, booed with chants of “tonto, tonto,” and responded by gesturing “a Segunda” toward home supporters before later posting “yo soy así.”
- Xabi Alonso declined to address the conduct but praised the impact, calling the substitute appearance decisive.
- Teammates Mbappé and Tchouaméni moved to calm him during flashpoints, with Mbappé later sharing a supportive “Big 7” post, while Thibaut Courtois lauded the Oviedo crowd.
- Inside the club, debate over his future persists as a contract running to 2027 remains without a new agreement, negotiations since February have stalled over wage demands, and no major summer offers arrived.
