Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso revealed Vinicius Junior asked to be replaced in the latter stages of the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday evening.
The Spanish boss turned heads in the 82nd minute when he took Vinicius Jr out of the game at Alinma Bank Stadium. The Brazil international was Los Blancos’ most dangerous player in the 3–2 defeat, scoring the opener for his side in spectacular fashion and creating chance after chance with his pace down the left flank.
