Ancelotti has no doubts: Vini Jr. will win the Ballon d’Or

The coach of Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti, has praised his player, Vinicius Junior.

The Brazilian star was outstanding last night, especially in the second half, giving Real a 5-2 overturn win over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League play-off.

The 24-year-old scored the first hat-trick in his career in the Champions League, while receiving praise from all sides, a few days before the Golden Ball ceremony, where he is the absolute favorite.

“It’s unusual to see a player have a second half like that. It’s strange to see this now, or even in the past. He brought energy, intensity, character. It was an outstanding performance. He can make a difference. It is respected in this country. He is helping in the issue of reducing racism, he is quite respected,” the Italian coach initially declared for the club’s official website.

“Vinicius Junior will win the Ballon d’Or, but not for what he did tonight. He will win it for what he has done over the last year, helping us win the Champions League. These three goals will help him before the Golden Ball ceremony”, said “Don Carlo”.

Vinicius Junior has scored eight goals this season, while he has been a very important player for Real in recent seasons.
