The Brazilian international scored a spectacular goal from the corner and celebrated in a provocative way in front of the Benfica fans, generating widespread confusion with objects thrown and a prolonged interruption of the match.
With the score ‘nil’ at half-time, the game remained open, but a goal from the Brazilian international, in the 50th minute, quickly undid that equality, as he darted inside and shot into the opposite top corner, without any chance for Trubin.
Vini ‘danced’ in the celebrations in front of the Benfica fans and confusion ensued, with objects thrown onto the pitch and Vinícius Júnior complaining about Gianluca Prestianni’s words, which interrupted the game for long minutes.
The incident left the game ‘hot’, with deafening whistles whenever Vinícius Junior and Mbappé touched the ball, and Benfica took a while to react to the goal conceded, only with a cross from Schjelderup reaching the goal creating ‘chills’.
