Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr. has declared that his team is fully prepared for their crucial Champions League quarter-final second-leg showdown against Arsenal on Wednesday.
The Brazilian winger fired up Los Blancos supporters with a defiant message of belief, following Madrid’s narrow 1-0 La Liga victory over Deportivo Alavés on Sunday.
Madrid will host the Gunners at the Santiago Bernabéu, aiming to overturn a steep 3-0 deficit from the first leg in London. Despite the odds, Vinicius exuded confidence and determination.
Sharing a photo of himself on Instagram, he wrote:
“Already thinking about Wednesday! We’re ready and looking forward to it. We’ll wait for you at the Bernabéu and we’ll try everything. We are the real! Hala Madrid!”
Carlo Ancelotti’s side will need a minimum of three goals to draw level, or a four-goal victory to advance outright—an uphill battle against Mikel Arteta’s in-form Arsenal squad.
Still, Vinicius’s rallying cry signals Madrid’s intent to fight until the final whistle, with the Bernabéu crowd expected to play a key role in what could be a dramatic European night.
