Vinicius Junior Faces Bernabéu Backlash After Sevilla Match

Vinicius Junior, captaining Real Madrid against Sevilla, experienced an unexpected wave of jeers from the BernabĂ©u crowd on Sunday. The Brazilian forward left the pitch to a chorus of boos, marking a stark contrast to the usual support he enjoys from Madridistas. This reaction came after his 14th consecutive match without finding the back of the net, a statistic that has begun to weigh heavily on both his performance and the fans’ patience.

The match against Sevilla ended in disappointment for Real Madrid, who were held to a draw. Vinicius, typically a fan favorite known for his dazzling skills and pace, found himself under scrutiny as he struggled to make an impact. With each passing match without a goal, the tension between him and a section of the supporters appears to be rising. His substitution late in the game did not go unnoticed; he exited with a somber expression, offering only a brief embrace to Xabi Alonso before taking his place on the bench, avoiding eye contact with the stands.

Social Media Reaction

However, it was after the final whistle that Vinicius stirred further controversy. Within minutes of the match concluding, he changed his Instagram profile picture from that of Real Madrid’s colors to one representing the Brazilian national team. This gesture ignited speculation among fans and pundits alike. Some interpreted it as a subtle rebuke towards his critics in Madrid, while others speculated it could signal his desire to leave the club amid growing frustrations.

Implications for Future Matches

Adding fuel to the fire, Vinicius later posted several images from the match on social media, accompanied by an enigmatic ellipsis—three simple dots that left many guessing about his state of mind. The lack of any accompanying text or end-of-year wishes only deepened concerns about his relationship with certain segments of the fanbase. As Real Madrid prepares for their next home game on January 4, it will be crucial to see how both Vinicius and the supporters respond during their reunion at Santiago Bernabéu.

With pressure mounting and expectations high, can Vinicius find his scoring touch again? The upcoming matches will be pivotal not just for his career but also for how he is perceived by a fanbase that has historically rallied behind him.
