Ancelotti’s Fatherly Intervention with Vinicius Jr. as El Clasico Tension Soars
As Real Madrid was looking to manage the clock in the final minutes of the El Clasico, Carlo Ancelotti made a substitution, bringing Vinicius Jr. off the pitch. While the change was intended to run down the clock, the Brazilian forward appeared to take the mission a bit too seriously. He seemed in no hurry, applauding the crowd, including rival fans, and walking at a snail’s pace. He even engaged in a heated argument with the referee, who was urging him to speed up.
In a memorable moment, Ancelotti stepped in as a fatherly figure, taking Vinicius Jr. by the hand and guiding him off the field. This intervention helped maintain order and efficiency as the clock ticked down.
Vinicius Jr. had an off day with no goal contributions against Barcelona and encountered difficulties against defender Ronald Araujo. Fortunately, the stunning eye for goal from Jude Bellingham sealed the victory for Los Blancos, making it a memorable El Clasico win.
