Pachuca coach hails Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr as "the best in the world"

Pachuca coach Guillermo Almada has hailed Real Madrid's attacking duo of Vinicius Jr and Kylian Mbappe as the 'best in the world' after they propelled Los Blancos to a 3-0 win over his side in the Intercontinental Cup final on Wednesday.

After his side's loss, Almada said about Vinicius and Mbappe (via GOAL):

"Vinicius is the best in the world, along with Mbappe, and his level is difficult to control on a permanent basis. Until the goal, Vinicius did not appear but then, in a second, he did that and, that type of player is difficult to control for 90 minutes."

Vinicius Jr and Mbappe have been the firepower of Real Madrid's attack this season. The Brazilian has netted 14 goals and assisted 10 more in 21 matches across competitions, while the Frenchman has contributed 13 goals and three assists in 23 appearances.
