Provides assist in loss Vinicius assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to Bayern Munich.

Impact Vinicius set up Kylian Mbappe's 42nd minute goal and rattled the crossbar just a minute earlier with Madrid pushing hard for a comeback, but his four costly giveaways in dangerous areas directly led to Bayern goals and Dayot Upamecano had him locked down in one-on-one battles for most of the night. He walked away with an assist, but was second best for long stretches, with his missed chances standing out as the main frustration in what still ended up being a mixed outing that included three shots (none on target) and two chances created. Vinicius wraps up his Champions League run with five goals and five assists in 14 appearances (13 starts), matching his total goal contributions from the previous two seasons in the competition.

Provides assist in victory Vinicius (undisclosed) played 67 minutes and set up the opener in Tuesday's win over Croatia, fully putting to rest any concerns about his fitness.

Impact Vinicius turned a few heads earlier in the break after being held out of a training session for individual gym work, but he put any concern to rest in convincing fashion against Croatia by delivering a brilliant assist on the opener. The Real Madrid star now heads back to the club fully fit and in strong scoring form, which is exactly the kind of momentum Los Blancos need entering a huge run of fixtures in the stretch drive of the season.

Returns to team training Junior (undisclosed) was back in team training with Brazil Monday and should be an option for Tuesday's clash against Croatia, according to Diario AS.

Impact Junior had a few people on alert after sitting out Saturday's session for individual gym work and treatment, which threw a bit of uncertainty around his status for Tuesday's friendly against Croatia. But the momentum has swung back in his favor since he rejoined full team training Monday with the Selecao and is now right back in the mix for that showdown. Brazil's staff will still probably manage his minutes carefully after the heavy load he has been carrying with Real Madrid, but at this stage, the expectation is that he will be good to go on Tuesday.

Doubtful against Croatia Junior was absent from Brazil's training session on Saturday, raising doubts over his availability for Tuesday's friendly against Croatia, according to globo.

Impact The Brazilian star did not take part in the team's training session on Saturday, instead completing individual gym work before undergoing treatment, without joining the rest of the group on the pitch. His absence has cast doubt over his involvement in the second friendly against Croatia. The Brazilian camp will be closely monitoring his condition over the coming days, though it is also possible that Brazil are simply giving him a rest given the heavy schedule he has endured with Real Madrid in recent weeks, with another league fixture coming just three days after the Croatia friendly.
