The match saw Real Madrid struggling, trailing Roma by a score of three to one as they faced the prospect of a significant defeat. Despite several of the team's top players having subpar performances, Vinícius Jr. attracted the most criticism from fans.
Returning to the starting lineup at the Stadio Olimpico, Vinícius has faced challenges on the field. In the wake of being handed a four-match domestic ban, he struggled to make a meaningful impact, frequently losing possession and failing to get past defenders. His performance came to a head when he was substituted before the hour mark after contributing to Roma's second goal early in the second half.
The frustration among supporters culminated in a wave of criticism directed at Vinícius, with fans highlighting his struggles as unacceptable. One fan expressed sentiments echoed by others, stating, 'Vini genuinely needs to leave football, this isn’t normal. His level is shocking.'
