UNPARALLELED IN HISTORY: Vinicius Matches Messi’s Record with a SPECTACULAR Assist in the Champions League Final as Real Madrid Makes Club History

For Real Madrid, Vinicius Junior scored yet another important goal.

In the Champions League final at Wembley, Real Madrid overcame Borussia Dortmund, and Vinicius Junior equaled an astounding record set by Lionel Messi.

The Brazilian and Dani Carvajal goals in the second half gave Los Blancos their 15th European Cup victory.

Although the sides were tied at zero goals going into halftime in London, the first half was anything from slow.

Dortmund dominated the final and had most of the chances. Karim Adeyemi gave Dortmund a warning early on when he rounded Thibaut Courtois and his touch just missed.

After that, Niclas Fullkrug slid the ball under Courtois and onto the post, although an offside call would have prevented the Germany international’s goal.

On the other hand, Real Madrid put on a lacklustre first half display as the European final specialists failed to register a shot on goal.

However, they were far more effective in the second half, as Carvajal headed a corner from Toni Kroos into the top corner of the goal.

And Vinicius made it 2-0 late on after slotting the ball beyond Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

In doing so, the Brazilian matched a record set by the great Lionel Messi.

The Ballon d’Or contender has been directly involved in 22 goals in the knockout stages of the Champions League before turning 24 – with 11 goals and 11 assists.

The only other player in football history to have achieved the same feat in the Champions League is Messi – meaning he joins an exclusive club.

Real also created club history as they became the first team to go undefeated throughout the Champions League season.

With a brilliant second half display, Carlo Ancelotti’s team achieved yet another European victory. It was another incredible night for them.
