The head coach of Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso, has spoken out over the irate response of winger Vinicius following his substitution during the victory over Barcelona. Alonso was present as Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham scored goals to help Real Madrid overcome Barcelona 2-1 at Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday. When the score was 2-1 at seventy-two minutes, the Spaniard decided to substitute Rodrygo for Vinicius. But when the game was still going on, Vinicius showed how angry he was to be removed by blanking Alonso, rage on the bench, and then heading down the tunnel. During his post-match interview following the game, Alonso was asked about the Brazilian’s furious response and responded, “I don’t want to lose focus on what is important.These are topics we shall discuss. Vini has also made a significant contribution to the fantastic game in which he has participated. “There are a variety of characters on the group. We shall now enjoy ourselves and eventually have a conversation in the dressing room between Alonso and Vinicius.
