Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham shared his feelings on YouTube regarding the emotional moment when forward Vinicius Jr. cried during a press conference for the Brazilian national team in March while discussing his fight against racism.
Vini looked very sad in his press conference yesterday. When he talks about racism, he does it very well. It’s hard to see him like this – the Vini I know is always smiling, cheering, so it’s something that affects me. He even talked about stopping playing and quitting football… We have to support him when we are back in Madrid, make him feel loved.

In the La Liga season of 2024/25, Vinicius has played seven matches for Real Madrid, scoring three goals and providing three assists.
After seven rounds, Real Madrid has accumulated 17 points, placing them second in the standings, while Barcelona leads the league with 21 points.
Earlier, Lothar Matthaus stated that Rodri deserves the Ballon d'Or more than Vinicius.
