UCL: Vinicius Jr vows Real Madrid are ready to fight Arsenal in quarterfinal showdown
On Monday, April 14, Vinicius Jr., the dynamic forward for Real Madrid, confidently declared that his team is fully prepared to face Arsenal in their Champions League quarter-final second leg on Wednesday.
The Brazilian forward fired up Los Blancos’ supporters with a spirited message of determination after his side secured a 1-0 victory over Deportivo Alavés in La Liga on Sunday.
Real Madrid will face Arsenal at the Santiago Bernabéu, trailing by a 3-0 deficit from the first leg. But Vinicius is undeterred, stating that the team is completely focused on the task at hand and will give their all to overturn the deficit.
Taking to Instagram, the 23-year-old forward shared a photo of himself with the caption: “Already thinking about Wednesday! We’re ready and looking forward to it. We’ll wait for you at the Bernabéu and we’ll try everything. WE ARE THE REAL! HALAMADRID!”
With Carlo Ancelotti’s men facing an uphill battle, they will need to secure a four-goal victory to eliminate Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal or a three-goal margin to at least force extra time.
Vinicius, who has been in sensational form this season, has contributed 33 goals in 44 appearances across all competitions, making him one of Real Madrid’s most pivotal players. The upcoming clash promises to be a dramatic and highly anticipated contest.
