Vinicius Junior continued his sublime record against Liverpool last night, netting two goals as Real Madrid beat the Reds 5-2 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League last 16 tie at Anfield.
The Brazilian attacker registered his fifth goal against Jurgen Klopp's side, which is the most by any player in the European competition. Despite falling 2-0 down in the early stages, Los Blancos responded emphatically by securing a three-goal aggregate lead ahead of the return fixture in March.
However, Vinicius could have been tormenting Liverpool on British shores more often if Manchester United had followed up on their interest in him which dates all the way back to 2014.
