  • Chronicle Vinicius breaks Osasuna and Madrid is the leader of the League

Vinicius Júnior

will not play for

Real Madrid

again until the first leg of

the Champions League quarterfinals

against

Manchester City

on

April 9

.

Mix of the international break next week and the

sanction

to the Brazilian footballer, who received his

fifth yellow card

of the season in the League against

Osasuna

and will miss the duel on Sunday the 31st against

Athletic Club

at the

Bernabéu

, one of the most important matches. that remain for the white team in its objective of winning the title.

Vinicius received the card just before the break, in the 43rd minute, when he

protested to Martínez Munuera

for not carding a Navarrese player.

The forward approached the referee, asked for the warning and when he saw that he did not show it to him, he laughed and walked away from him.

That attitude was enough for the referee to punish him with a yellow card that leads to suspension.

"

I did nothing!

"It's incredible

," he said towards the bench.

"

Every game this referee gives me a card

," he later added to the camera while he walked towards the locker room.

The fifth yellow card of the league season for

Vinicius

is the

fourth in a row

, linking with those he saw against

Valencia, Leipzig and Celta

.

A constant that, according to Ancelotti, needs to improve.

«The truth is that he is a very dangerous player and everyone realizes it.

The

rival fans who whistle for him

, the rivals who have been correct today, have kicked him but within the regulations... He obviously

can improve in that aspect and will improve

.

"He is a humble, serious and intelligent boy," declared the Italian coach.

Six goals in four games

Asked about the atmosphere that surrounds Vinicius in each match, Ancelotti also insisted that the footballer must better assimilate that context.

"The pressure he has in the environment has to be controlled a little more, yes,"

Carletto

said in the press room.

Before, he praised the

“extraordinary” performance

of his soccer player: “I congratulated him because he played an extraordinary game.

He has chosen situations very well, he has moved well without the ball, he has attacked the defensive line, this is what he has improved the most.

With the ball he is always effective but now without the ball he is being spectacular.

And on the other side of the scale, compared to those yellow cards,

Vinicius has accumulated six goals in the last four games

.

Two against Valencia, one against Leipzig, another against Celta and two from El Sadar, where he was far superior to the Navarrese defenders.

He scored two, but could have gone up to four if he had been even more accurate.

In the first half he had a one-on-one with Herrera in which he tried to beat him under the legs and in the final stretch he scored too wide when he already smelled the hattrick.

«

I don't think about what I have messed up, but about what I failed in the end

.

"In that he could have scored even more," the footballer acknowledged after the duel.

«The coach has given me freedom and I am taking advantage of it.

At the top we all have the little arrow up, marking a lot," he added.
