Real Madrid forward, Vinicius Jr must forget his Ballon d’Or disappointment asap, Rivaldo has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Vini must get back to doing what he does best at Real Madrid, and the recent Ballon d’Or saga should become a thing of the past.
Rivaldo added that Vini is still young to prove himself again, and he’ll definitely win the Ballon d’Or someday.
His words, “Vinicius has to get this Ballon d’Or story out of his head, start playing again and start playing well for Real Madrid, who have to win games after two consecutive defeats. Vinicius is young, he has the age and the football to turn all this around. One day he will win the Ballon d’Or. He could be the best in the world one or more times. Do all the journalists who vote really understand football? Are all of them, absolutely all of them, really qualified people? I can’t underestimate Rodri. He’s a player I like. For me he was my second candidate. And yes, although I think Vinicius deserved the Ballon d’Or more, I can’t take away any merit from the award, because I really admire Rodri. His way of playing and his style. I like him.”
WOW.
Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, commonly referred to as Real Madrid, is a Spanish professional football club based in Madrid. The club competes in La Liga, the top tier of Spanish football.
Real Madrid has maintained the white shirt for its home kit throughout the history of the club. There was, however, one season that the shirt and shorts were not both white. It was an initiative undertaken by Juan Padrós in honor of an English team Corinthian F.C., which he had met on one of his trips, one of the most famous teams at the time known for its elegance and sportsmanship.
It was under Florentino Pérez’s first presidency (2000–2006) that Real Madrid started its ambition of becoming the world’s richest professional football club. The club ceded part of its training grounds to the city of Madrid in 2001, and sold the rest to four corporations: Repsol YPF, Mutua Automovilística de Madrid, Sacyr Vallehermoso and OHL.
Hala Madrid is a magazine published quarterly for the Real Madrid club members and the Madridistas Fan Club card holders. The phrase Hala Madrid, meaning “Forward Madrid” or “Go Madrid”, is also the title of the club’s official anthem, which is often sung by the Madridistas (the club’s fans).
