Real Madrid's 2-goal Vinicius Jr: I'm at my best

Real Madrid attacker Vinicus Jr admits he feels in career best form.

Vinicius struck twice in Tuesday's 5-0 defeat of Alaves.

He later said: “I'm really pleased with the team's performance, we need to get into a good rhythm. We have a very important game left to crown our season."

“We always enjoy wearing this shirt and playing for these fans at this stadium. My dream since I was a child was to play here and now we have the opportunity to deliver this victory for many kids who want to be here but can't. We have to give joy to our fans and especially to the kids who have a future in front of them."

“I'm at my best. Now we have time to train and that gives us the peace of mind to be able to do a good job and reach the final in the best shape.

On his connection with Jude Bellingham, he added: “We have a great connection. I always say I'm a big fan of Bellingham and I did everything I could to get him to join us. He's happy and we're happy. Hopefully he can score more goals to become the league's top scorer."
