The RFEF Disciplinary Committee: Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr was once again at the center of controversy after the Brazilian shoved Valencia goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski in the face on Saturday (IST). Head coach Carlo Ancelotti sympathised with the 24-year-old and claimed it was not easy to be in his shoes.
“It wasn’t a red card, it was a yellow card, and that is why we hope he doesn’t get any matches. It is difficult to be him if I put myself in his shoes. It is difficult to put up with everything that happens and the insults. It is not that simple, but he tries to improve. He is sad about the red card and has apologised, but we have to look forward.
“I see what is happening and what has happened in the stadiums with him. His attitude has improved a lot and he can still improve, but nobody is perfect. He is doing a lot of work with this and has improved a lot, so much so that he is the best player in the world,” said Ancelotti in a press conference.
