[Saba Sports News] In this round of La Liga, Real Madrid lost 1-2 at home to Valencia in a major upset. According to Spanish media reports, Vinicius Junior, who missed a penalty, was booed by some fans at the Bernabeu when he was substituted in the second half. It was the 77th minute of the match, with the score at 1-1, and Vinicius, who scored one goal for Real Madrid but missed a penalty, was one of the players substituted. At this time, some boos aimed at the Brazilian star could be heard at the Bernabeu, even overshadowing the cheers from the supporting fans. This was not the only time Bernabeu fans booed Vinicius during the match; the boos had already appeared when he missed the penalty in the first half. In addition to the fans, there have also been several instances of dissatisfaction with Vinicius within the Real Madrid team this season. After a match against Real Sociedad, Carlo Ancelotti explained that he had indeed warned Vinicius that he would be substituted if he did not defend. In a February match against Leganes, Luka Modric became angry with Vinicius towards the end of the game because he was not actively defending. Additionally, during an away match against Atletico Madrid, Jude Bellingham seemed to vent his frustration at Vinicius, who was lying on the field without returning to defense, after a defensive tackle.
