Fans went wild as Vinicius Jr. provided a stunning assist against Osasuna in the Copa del Rey final. The Brazilian assisted Rodrygo for Real Madrid’s first goal of the game in just the second minute.
Rodrygo couldn’t find a way down the right, so he switched the ball to Camavinga on the opposite side. The Frenchman played the ball out to Vinicius, who took on Ruben Pena and Jon Moncayola. The let-winger breezed past towards the byline and pulled it back to the far post. Rodrygo, who was waiting there, made no mistake as his effort deflected over Sergio Herrera to give Real Madrid the lead.
It was almost too easy for Vinicius, as his quick feet proved to be the difference. Fans were mesmerized as he left the defenders in his wake. Vinicius Jr.’s stunning assist in the Copa del Rey final is just one of the many highlights of his impressive season with Real Madrid. The Brazilian winger has been in outstanding form, particularly in the Copa del Rey, where he has been a critical player for the team.
Vinicius’ speed and dribbling ability have constantly threatened opposing defences. He has often used his skills to create numerous chances for his teammates. His seven-goal contributions in just 385 minutes of play in the competition are a testament to his impact.

Fans react to Vinicius Jr.’s brilliant dribble
Real Madrid has been very successful in the Copa del Rey. They have won the trophy 19 times. However, their most recent victory came almost ten years ago, in the 2013-14 season. Los Blancos will also be looking to overcome their unfortunate record of finishing runners-up in the competition the most times (20).
Meanwhile, Osasuna is the David to Real Madrid’s Goliath, having yet to win a trophy in over 100 years of existence. They are the underdogs coming into the game and will attempt to replicate a performance similar to the one that earned them a 1-1 draw against Real earlier this season.
