Vinícius Jr. set a new career-best record in Real Madrid’s draw with Mallorca | OneFootball

Real Madrid star Vinícius Jr. secured for himself a head-turning personal benchmark during the club’s latest outing over the weekend.

Real, of course, kicked the club’s defence of their La Liga title into gear on Sunday night, in a meeting with RCD Mallorca.

When all was said and done in a somewhat frustrating affair for Carlo Ancelotti’s troops, they were forced to settle for a share of the spoils, in a 1-1 stalemate.

A stout Mallorca backline, however, did not stop the aforementioned Vinícius from putting on something of a creative masterclass.

Thrown in from the off at Son Moix, the Brazilian international brought about his trademark blend of unpredictability, flair, and final product.

As much culminated in not only the assist for Real Madrid’s only goal of the game, but also a new personal record.

As revealed by statisticians Opta:

‘Against Mallorca, Vinícius Júnior created six goalscoring chances, all six from open play, recording the highest tally in a single LaLiga game in his entire career.’
