Vin\u00edcius scored one and assisted two (or three) goals in a 6-1 thrashing in Champions League.<\/b>
\nReal Madrid improved the series of bad results before and after the sacking of Xabi Alonso with a second consecutive win, and a big one, a 6-1 thrashing to Monaco at Champions League, leaving them temporarily as second of the table behind Arsenal, with a little help from PSG and Manchester City, who also lost in the Tuesday’s games.
Mbapp\u00e9 scored a brace, and Vin\u00edcius Jr., Jude Bellingham added another, with Thio Kehrer scoring an own goal and Vin\u00edcius adding two assists (and another \u00ab\u00a0ghost assist\u00a0\u00bb, as he caused Kehrer’s own goal), earning him the MVP award, a rare feat for the Brazilian lately, who has been repeatedly whistled at and booed at the Bernab\u00e9u.
\u00ab\u00a0So happy for you my brother. All the Madridistas are with you\u00a0\u00bb, wrote Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 on Instagram, one of the few players who has not been targeted by angry Real Madrid fans in the last few weeks.
\u00c1lvaro Arbeloa, Real Madrid’s new coach, also praised the winger: \u00ab\u00a0I’m very happy for my players because we need a committed team, and I’m very happy for Vin\u00edcius because he deserves the fans’ affection and I think that hug he gave me was for all of Real Madrid\u00a0\u00bb, said Arbeloa, who embraced with Vin\u00edcius after the match. \u00ab\u00a0We need Vinicius to be happy so we can win all the titles\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n
