Vinicius in a frenzy (Reuters)
Who can stop Vinicius Junior when he meets Liverpool? The Real Madrid winger tonight (Tuesday) became the first ever to score five goals during his career against the Meaths in the European Cup. He did this in only his fourth appearance against them, when as I recall the previous one was in the final of the Champions League where he decided and brought the title to the Blancos.
The pair, which brought the boys back from an early 2-0 deficit to 2-2 which later grew into a huge lead, made him the youngest player to score twice against Liverpool in a major European event since Johan Cruyff did it for Ajax, sometime in December 1966. The Brazilian improved his record For 18 goals and 8 assists this season in all formats and he leads the Blancos in both parameters.
