Vini Jr. played his 200th game for Real Madrid against Valencia and celebrated with a great goal, his 50th for the club. He started from his own half, raced down the left flank and struck it home with his right foot past the goalkeeper. The Brazilian, who received a commemorative shirt from the president after the match, reached this figure in his fifth season with Madrid, with whom he has won 7 titles: 1 Champions League, 1 Club World Cup, 1 European Super Cup, 2 LaLiga and 2 Spanish Super Cups.

Vini Jr. has played the most minutes of any player in the squad this season and is also the team's top scorer with 13 goals, level with Benzema. He has also been nominated for the FIFA Best Award and has already made history for Real Madrid by scoring the goal that won La Decimocuarta against Liverpool in Paris.
