It looks like Vinicius Jr. is looking for trouble even when everything is calm. Well, sort of. He was in the middle of the great controversy yesterday, when he apparently scored the second goal against Almeria with his arm, but the goal was not nullified since VAR and the referee decided he did it with his shoulder. And while the whole of Spain is debating today about it, he opted against keeping a low profile and posted a sentence “Great goal!!! That’s how he always did it on Copacabana beach”. Needless to say that he only managed to get people mad again.🚨| Almeria goal disallowed against Real Madrid after this challenge on Jude Bellingham pic.twitter.com/Q4l5pakKGs— Red Card Alert (@collinabanter) January 21, 2024 The media have been silent about this Vinicius Jr’s goal yesterday vs. Almeria.Imagine if this was scored by a Barcelona player. 😂pic.twitter.com/BMAyqyYw1x— ⚽ Chris ⭐ (@ChrisIdogar) January 22, 2024 But the problem with a stunning, 99th minute turnaround in this game and 3-2 Real’s win over last-placed Almeria was not only one, but three VAR decisions, and all of them went against the guests. On top of that, referee Hernández Maeso gave a red card to Almeria coach, who was out of his mind with his decisions throughout the match. And what do they say in Madrid? Well, everything is what it should be, if you ask people from Real. Even coach Carlo Ancelotti choose to stick with the official review, even he wasn’t like that in the past, when it was obvious that a mistake was made.“I understand Almería’s anger with the VAR decisions, but I think they were well decided. I’ve seen them. I think the referee makes the right decisions, not the VAR. The VAR warns and the referee decides. And I think he was right” said the Italian tactician.Real helped by the referee in a big comeback over AlmeriaEven Barcelona’s coach Xavi couldn’t hold himself when asked about the VAR decisions.“If we speak we are sanctioned, but everyone has seen it. I already said in Getafe that there were things that did not fit me in this league. There are things that We don’t control it and everyone has seen it. I remember the penalty in Getafe, Joao’s goal in Granada… and it’s not talked about. We would already have six more points. They are not excuses, they are realities. We always get a cross. Today “We have to talk about the team” he said.Resumen del Real Madrid-Almería para el que no lo pudo ver.pic.twitter.com/riBI73haLN— Sextete⁶ (@s6xtete) January 22, 2024 Other VAR decisions was to give Real a penalty (it was 0-2 at the time) in a debateable circumstaces after Madrid striker Joselu headed the ball onto Kaiky Fernandes’ arm from inches above him. And then Almeria scored for 1-3 but again VAR room called the referee to point him out on apparent foul by the guests in the build-up to the goal. A flailing Lopy arm did catch Bellingham as they tussled for the ball in Almeria’s half and Bellingham went down. Enough for Hernández Maeso to disallow the goal. Real Madrid TV, well known for making videos with referees mistakes against their team didn’t produce anything this time.##NAJAVA_MECA_7812671##
