“After the tests carried out on our player Vinicius Júnior, he has been diagnosed with a cervical injury. Pending evolution”, are part of the words of the press release that Real Madrid issued today, Sunday, about the physical condition of its star striker, Vinícius Júnior, who was forced to leave the field of play on Saturday at the legendary Santiago Bernabéu in a victory against the Villarreal 2 goals to 0, as a result of discomfort.

Discomfort and had to be changed

The Brazilian star noticed discomfort when resting his arm on the pitch after a fall and after that he had to be changed. The entire stretch that the forward walked until leaving the playing field was with faces showing the pain he was suffering. He was examined by doctors from the White House team, but it was not until this Sunday that the official report arrived. The publication came a few seconds after Dani Carvajal’s report, which is much more serious as he has a triple break.

The cervical

“He has had a problem in his cervical spine and it is completely blocked. “It hurts and they are going to do tests on him in the next few hours,” were the words of the technical director of the merengue team, Carlo ‘Carletto’ Ancelotti at the end of the match, at a press conference. Now, after the club’s statement, more details are known about the extent of these pains and it is expected that Vinícius Júnior’s evolution in this regard will determine his participation in training and upcoming matches for Real Madrid.

A key goal

The Brazilian, with his great goal against the Yellow Submarine, was the key man in a very vital victory for the white team which came after a week that was very complicated for them, where they had tied against Atlético de Madrid in the derby that took place at the Metropolitano and had lost in France against Lille by the minimum in the Champions League matchday.

Thanks to Vini’s goal, Madrid has been able to take a different breath both in terms of points and emotionally. to continue competing with the leader of the league competition so far, Fútbol Club Barcelona.
