Vinicius Jr was a topic in the Spanish press after Real Madrid's match against Getafe. It seems that at the end of the match, where the visiting team won 1-0, the merengue forward got into a discussion with Allan Nyom because he didn't like the Cameroonian's celebration.

However, the Spanish press highlights that the animosity between the two players existed before the match at Santiago Bernabéu. As far as is known, it all started in the first leg match at Getafe's ground. At that time, Nyom entered the game at the 75th minute but ended up being sent off the next minute, which led Vinicius Jr to taunt the coach of the club from the outskirts of Madrid.

"Good substitution", the Brazilian reportedly said in a provocative tone, just as he did at Estádio da Luz, in front of Benfica fans and Gianluca Prestianni. However, months later, the Brazilian star tasted his own 'medicine' when Getafe, using Vinicius Jr's expression, marked their victory at Santiago Bernabéu.

"We like it when it's Djené [doing the celebration], but let's say it was a good substitution", wrote Getafe on their official account on the social network X, using Vinicius Jr's words to show Nyom's happiness after the 1-0 victory.

Real Madrid, after eliminating Benfica from the Champions League, disappointed again in the league, risking seeing Barcelona pull further ahead in the La Liga standings. In the prestigious competition, the draw set a new encounter for the merengues, who will face Manchester City.
