An absurd claim has emerged that Vinicius Junior (24, Real Madrid) is a better player than Lionel Messi (37, Inter Miami).
In the recent episode of the Spanish soccer program El Chiringito, Jose Luis Sanchez and Edu Aguirre, who are familiar with the news of Real Madrid, appeared and exchanged various stories.
Vinicius' performance has become a hot topic of conversation. Vinicius, who is considered the most likely winner of this year's Ballon d'Or, boasted his physical condition at its peak this season by scoring three goals and seven assists in 11 games.
However, public opinion does not seem to side with Vinicius. Vinicius, who had an interview with the U.S. media "CNN" in August, was criticized for saying, "If the racism problem in Spain does not improve, we should change the host country of the 2030 FIFA World Cup." It was a remark that condemned Spain as a racist society, and teammates including Dani Carvajal turned their backs on Spain, and even the mayor of Madrid urged an apology.
Not only that. Vinicius does not tolerate injustice towards him, but plays dirty on the ground all the time. According to the British media "Goalcom," even coach Carlo Ancelotti gave up on Vinicius. Not long ago, he played in the Atletico Madrid and Madrid derby (1-1 draw), mocking Koke and Marcos Llorente despite the mediation of Jude Bellingham and Luca Modric.
However, reporters Sanchez and Aguirre made headlines by supporting Vinicius to see if he had any sense of humor or not. British media Tribune also highlighted their remarks. If it were just a simple compliment, it would not have been very controversial, but he made soccer fans angry by mentioning Messi.
First, Sanchez opened his mouth. "Vinius and Messi are similar, but there is a difference in dribbling. Vinicius is a player who depends on speed. His performance from the side against the defender is impressive," he said. "In an open space, Messi's dribbling can be cleaner. However, Vinicius has many ways to escape from the defender."
"Vinícius goes up the touchline and shows good performance even though there is little space. This is different from Messi," Aguirre said, adding to Sanchez's opinion. 메이저사이트
On the other hand, the public opinion is cold. Even Real Madrid fans seem to be leaning their heads. On social networking sites, negative comments such as "Messi can do what Vinicius does, but Vinicius can't copy what Messi does," "Are you proud of just having a Ballon d'Or?" and "The worst Ballon d'Or in history."
