FootballVinicius Junior Scores Similar Goal in Training That Condemned Liverpool to Defeat
Footage has emerged on social media where Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior was spotted in training scoring similar goal he went on to net against Liverpool in the Champions League final.
The 21-year-old Brazilian winger was last Saturday the hero for Real Madrid against Liverpool as his brilliant goal condemned the Reds to a 1-0 defeat in Paris.
Trent Alexander-Arnold would have himself to blame as he failed to cover his department very well which gave Junior the chance to find the back of the net.
And according to the report on Daily Mail, hours before the Champions League final, Vinicius Junior also scored brilliant goal in training.
