Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo combined to devastating effect to help Real Madrid break the deadlock in the Copa del Rey final against Osasuna on Saturday evening.

With the game held at a neutral venue, Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville, Madrid shot into an early lead following a brilliant play down the left flank by Vini Jr, who danced along the byline past a couple of defenders before putting the ball on the plate for his compatriot, who made no mistake to prod home.

Rodrygo restored Madrid's lead with 20 minutes left on the clock after Lucas Torro had drawn Osasuna parity shortly after the break.

Vini destroys Villarreal defenders

Vinicius Junior channelled his inner Ronaldinho to score a sublime goal to continue his purple patch of form this season, Sports Brief reported.

The Brazil international put in another assured performance from the left flank. However, his efforts proved futile as Real Madrid suffered a shock 3-2 defeat against Villarreal on Holy Saturday.

Despite the heartbreaking defeat, Vinicius left an indelible impression on the game with a goal akin to Ronaldinho's stunning goal against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu in 2005.

Rodrygo produces sublime skill

In a related publication, Sports Brief reported that Rodrygo Goes produced a sublime piece of skill to set up Karim Benzema's second goal in Real Madrid's game against Almeria.

The 22-year-old Brazil prodigy proceeded to use an amazing technique to utterly bamboozle his opponent on the byline.

Rodrygo then stood up and sent the ball back to Benzema, who scored from about eight yards out with no mistake.
