During a night when Bangla Cricket Live kept many viewers glued to their screens, Real Madrid delivered a statement performance in the seventh round of the Champions League league phase, crushing Monaco 6–1 and climbing to second place in the standings. Vinicius Junior was the undisputed star, directly contributing to four goals and reminding everyone why he remains one of the most decisive wingers in Europe. From the opening stages, Madrid played with confidence and intensity, and Monaco simply could not cope with the pace and quality on display.
The breakthrough moments all carried Vinicius’ signature. In the 27th minute, he burst down the left flank, created a clear one on one situation, and calmly squared the ball for Mbappe to finish, extending the lead to 2–0. After the break, his influence only grew. Early in the second half, Vinicius danced across the edge of the penalty area before slipping a perfectly weighted pass to the overlapping Mastantuono on the right, setting up the youngster’s first ever Champions League goal and pushing the score to 3–0.
Momentum stayed firmly with Madrid. Just five minutes later, another low cross from Vinicius caused panic in the Monaco defense and resulted in an own goal, making it 4–0. On the hour mark, he capped his performance by cutting inside from the left, shaking off his marker, and unleashing a powerful right footed shot from the edge of the box to make it 5–0. By the final whistle, his tally stood at one goal, two assists, and one forced own goal, single handedly shaping a dominant 6–1 victory.
Beyond the headline numbers, the underlying statistics highlighted his all around impact. Vinicius registered five shots, completed four of five dribbles, delivered seven key passes, and maintained an impressive passing accuracy. Jude Bellingham later summed it up perfectly, saying Vinicius thrives on trust and support, and when fans show belief, his performances naturally rise to another level. It was a case of actions speaking louder than words.
Vinicius himself echoed that sentiment, noting that he wants attention to come from what he does on the pitch, not off it, and that even on imperfect days he always gives everything. Ahead of kickoff, Spanish media had reported Real Madrid were working to repair the relationship between Vinicius and the supporters, and this display felt like the perfect remedy. As Bangla Cricket Live rolled toward its conclusion elsewhere, Vinicius once again stood tall as Madrid’s fully restored ace, with new coach Alvaro Arbeloa also deserving credit for helping bring the best out of him.
