Vinícius Jr. set a La Liga-worst benchmark in Real Madrid’s defeat to Real Betis | OneFootball

The performance put forth by Real Madrid star Vinícius Jr. in the club’s latest outing has since given rise to a damning statistic…

This of course comes fresh off an evening to forget for all associated with Los Blancos this past weekend. José Mourinho’s troops made the trip to Seville to lock horns with Real Betis last Friday, with sights on a fourth victory on the spin to open the campaign.

When all was said and done, however, the visitors were condemned to the wrong side of a 1-0 result, to afford arch rivals Barcelona an early advantage in the La Liga title race.

A whole host of Real Madrid’s star performers struggled across the 90 minutes at La Cartuja, with Kylian Mbappé having been singled out for heavy criticism in the game’s aftermath.

As alluded to above, though, it was the woes of attacking partner-in-crime Vinícius Jr. which have since culminated in a head-turning statistic surfacing online.

As revealed by WhoScored:

‘Vinícius Júnior made 6 unsuccessful dribbles vs Real Betis, the most by any player in a single La Liga match this season.’
