Impact Vinicius was once again one of his side's best players, driving defenders crazy on the left flank with his combination of speed and skill. The wonderkid would've scored his first career FWC goal in the 64th minute if it wasn't for Richarlison being caught offside earlier on the action. Anyway, he kept going and initiated the play the led to Casemiro's game-winner during the closing stages of the match. Vincius could very well be one of the players rested on Friday's clash against Cameroon but will certainly lead the offense once again if picked to play.

Takes two shots in loss Vinicius put two shots off target and created two chances during Monday's 3-2 loss to Rayo Vallecano.

It was Madrid's first and only goal of the contest, and it helped the squad earn one point from the rather sluggish matchup. Overall, it wasn't the best of matches for fantasy performances, but Vinicius rewarded managers with his late efforts. The winger impressively now has six goals in 12 league matches and another three in UCL play.
