Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior has demonstrated he is one of the best in world football when it comes to the sweet art of dribbling.
The 22-year-old is absolutely electrifying with the ball at his feet, making it difficult for many defenders to stop him when he's in full force in recent times.
The Brazil international has also added goals and assists to his game since Carlo Ancelotti took to the helm last season, but his biggest weapons are still his skill moves and dribbles.
And in the UEFA Champions League group game on Wednesday against Ukrainian giants Shakhtar Donetsk, Vinicius showed off wonderful skills that brought the Santiago Bernabeu crowd to their feet.

Rodrygo had put Real Madrid ahead in the 13th minute with an exquisite finish. Vinicius then made it 2-0 for the Los Blancos 15 minutes later after a brilliant one-touch move display involving Karim Benzema, Federico Valverde, and Rodrygo.
But shortly before registering his goal in the evening, Vinicius decided to transform into prime Ronaldinho and outwit two Shakhtar defenders on the edge of the penalty area.
After controlling the ball, the opposing players tried to double up on Vinicius, but the wide man was too quick and found his way between two defenders on his way in a matter of seconds and made it look so easy.

The Frenchman however, who scored a staggering 44 goals in 46 matches across all competitions last season, missed from 12 yards as Madrid shared the spoils with 10-man Osasuna on Sunday, reports BBC.
