Vinicius Junior literally 'embarrassed' Conor Gallagher with an insane piece of sublime skill, nutmegging the England international in the Madrid derby on Sunday night.
The Brazilian forward, who has been widely tipped to win the 2024 Ballon d'Or, showed why he is considered to be one of the best footballers in the world.
Having performed subduedly in the opening minutes, Vini Jr. came alive later in the game, as was much expected.
Vinicius 'embarrasses' Atletico Madrid midfielder
The Brazilian trickster bamboozled Atletico Madrid midfielder Gallagher with some fancy footwork- leaving the Englishman looking somewhat embarrassed.
With Vinicius starting an attack from the middle of the pitch, Gallagher tried to close down and block him from surging forward.
But the England international left a clear gap between his legs, which the Real Madrid sensation utilised to devastating effect.
It pretty much appears that Vinicius will dazzle fans with snippets of outrageous flair and technique every week.
