Vinicius Jr says sorry – level 2
06-11-2025 07:00
Vinicius Jr, a Real Madrid player, says sorry for shouting during a big match called El Clásico. But he didn’t mention coach Xabi Alonso.
Vinicius got replaced in the 72nd minute, and Real Madrid won 2-1 against Barcelona. He told the coach that he wanted to leave the team because he felt angry. In his statement, he said sorry to the fans, teammates, the club, and the president.
Vinicius says his strong feelings and wish to win sometimes make him react fast. He loves Real Madrid and wants to help the team in every match. He says he fights for the club and always gives his best. This shows how players feel stress and strong emotions during important games.
Difficult words: replace (to take somebody’s place), statement (a sentence or message that gives information, opinion, or explanation), stress (strong pressure or worry in difficult situations).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
What two factors does he mention as sometimes causing him to react quickly during matches?
