rodrygo and vinicius jr are the two gems of Real Madrid and Carlo Ancelotti know it well. Last Sunday, the 17th, the Brazilian duo was on the field against seville and was important for the historic turn of the Merengues, away from home, for the 32nd round of the Spanish Championship. The team, after the 3-2 victory, was even closer to taking the title to the Santiago Bernabéu.
The two Real Madrid forwards are experiencing different moments at the club. Rodrygo, who is not the absolute starter of Carlo Ancelotti, has entered in the second half and resolved for Madrid. In the Champions League, he scored the goal that led to extra time and, against Sevilla, he swung the net and assisted Benzema. Meanwhile, Vinícius Jr actively participated in the plays, but failed to score goals and made important passes.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC:
In a press conference, after the turnaround, Carlo Ancelotti commented on the different moments that Vinícius Jr and Rodrygo are living. The Italian opened the game in relation to the way the two have helped Real Madrid to win their games in the Spanish Championship and also in the Champions League. One has solved goals and the other with assists.
He made the most difference when he came off the bench. I wouldn’t say he changed the game (against Sevilla) but he put his energy into the team and helped us“, said Carlo Ancelotti. He also commented on the lack of goals by Vinícius Jr.
Carlo Ancelotti minimized the striker’s dry spell. He highlighted that Vinícius Jr is not obsessed with goals, but that doesn’t make him less important for the team’s functioning: “I see him calm. I don’t see him obsessed with scoring goals. He wants to help the team and has been doing so since the start of the season. For the player, scoring goals is not the most important“.
To give you an idea, even though the Spanish press covers more goals from Vinícius Jr, the Brazilian is one of Real Madrid’s top scorers. This season, he has 17 goals and 13 assists in 44 games played, second only to Benzema. Meanwhile, Rodrygo, who starts most games at half-time, has four goals and eight assists in 40 games.
