Real Madrid manager, Carlos Ancelotti, has hailed Vinicius Junior after the Brazilian gave teammate Kylian Mbappe a penalty to take against Real Betis in the LaLiga on Sunday night.
Ancelotti said Vinicius, who is Real Madrid’s number one penalty taker, is very unselfish.
A brace from Mbappe gave Ancelotti’s side all three points against Real Betis at Santiago Bernabeu.
Speaking at his post-match press conference, Ancelotti also said that Vinicius has a good relationship with fellow attacking teammates Mbappe and Rodrygo.
“He [Mbappe] is never been put under pressure to score goals. He had a good game, like everyone else, and was very good in the box.
“Everyone worked well and Vini Jr. got the penalty for him. He was very unselfish and both of them, along with Rodrygo, have a good relationship.”
He added, “Scoring is important for Mbappé, but we assess the team’s work as a whole, which was better than in the last game.”
