#5 Vinicius is the most frightening Madrid attacker by a mile

It is a rare commodity to find a single person who makes it worth tuning into the game just to see how they do. That's Vinicius for you. He'll take risks, he's dynamic and loves to run straight at opponents, who looked confused and frightened seeing the little kid from Flamengo advance at them with the ball at his feet.

Vinicius had all Barca defenders and midfielders on the extra high alter, who were hell-bent on stopping the Brazilian teenager who's playing his first professional season in LaLiga.

He always had one runner around him, trying to restrict any dramatic movements, who despite all this heavy marking still gets to make more than a few clear cut chances for himself and his team. At one point he had Pique shaking and then down to the floor, and the resulting shot was just wide as it took a deflection. Vinicius could easily have had a hat-trick tonight had it not been for his lack of experience and killer instinct in front of the goal.
