Brazil international of Cameroonian descent Vinicius Jnr has reached a new milestone at Real Madrid following their hard-fought win over Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish La Liga on Sunday night.
The pacey winger lasted the entire duration as Real Madrid cruised to a narrow win over their opponent at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Real Madrid left it late after Uruguayan star Fede Valverde scored a stunner in the dyeing moments of the match to snatch maximum points for the host.
The hard-fought win has propelled Vinicius Jnr to a new height of his illustrious career. It was his 200 victories for Real Madrid since arriving at the club.
To reach this number, Vinicius needed to play 311 matches. The series began on October 31, 2018, when Real Madrid, with the Brazilian in the lineup, secured a victory over Melilla in the Copa del Rey.
It is worth noting that out of the 200 victories, Vinicius achieved 133 in La Liga and another 40 in the Champions League. The Brazilian’s contribution to these victories includes 105 goals.
Recall that Real Madrid is currently in a fierce battle with Barcelona for the Spanish championship title. The Catalans are ahead of their rivals by 4 points, making them closer to the trophy.
