This was also the case in Real Madrid-Bayern Munich, the second leg of the semi-final Champions League. In addition to his super performance, which allowed him to be among the best on the pitch, the Brazilian striker also stood out for his provocative attitude towards Kimmich.
It is not the first time that Vinicius has become the protagonist of these situations, which have led him to become a controversial character.

The Madrilenian dropped the ball, with the German then going back, taking the ball and decisively he placed it on the chest of the merengues star.

The two then continued their verbal face-to-face conversation, moving away from the area, with a real argument.
Fortunately for the Brazilian Kimmich then decided to end it there, without continuing further. He didn’t want to add anger and frustration to the disappointment of the defeat. Vinicius could certainly have avoided it, given that he could already enjoy the comeback and success.
