Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior has insisted that his angry outburst towards his second-half substitution and the on-field scuffle that brought Sunday’s Clásico to an ugly end were simply examples of what makes Los Blancos’ meetings with Barcelona so special.

Things threatened to turn sour for Madrid with 20 minutes to go when Vinicius failed to hide his fury towards manager Xabi Alonso’s decision to withdraw him.
