Vinicius Jr makes Champions League claim following Liverpool win in the final

Real Madrid were crowned Champions League winners for a record 14th time when they celebrated a 1-0 victory over Liverpool back in May.

Vinicius Jr was the one who scored the only goal of the game and helped the Whites to celebrate the victory.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side wrapped the 2021/2022 season with having won Supercopa de España, La Liga and Champions League.

“After a wonderful season, it was only fair to crown us with a victory in the final,” Vinicius told Realmadrid.com.

“I’ve been playing football for more than 15 years and you never know when you’re going to play a final, so I wanted to enjoy it to the fullest. (Scoring against Liverpool) was an unrepeatable feeling.

“Only those who have scored in this type of game in the Champions League can understand this feeling. It’s indescribable. You don’t know how to express it, how to explain it, there’s no way.

“Only those who have lived football and gone through the emotions that we have experienced this season know how important it is and how happy it makes you.”
