Vinicius Juniors hat-trick leads Real Madrid to 4-0 win


Real Madrid returned to winning ways on Saturday with a resounding 4-0 victory over Osasuna, thanks to a stellar hat-trick from Vinícius Júnior. the victory at the Santiago Bernabéu provided much-needed relief for manager Carlo Ancelotti, whose position was reportedly under scrutiny following recent home defeats to Barcelona (0-4) and AC Milan (1-3).

Pre-match tension and injury setbacks

Going into the game, Real Madrid faced a tense atmosphere, with Spanish media speculating on Ancelotti’s future. the pressure was further heightened by injuries to key players, including forward Rodrygo, defender Éder Militão, and midfielder Lucas Vázquez. Militão’s injury appeared particularly serious, raising additional concerns for Ancelotti and his already struggling squad.

Vinícius Júnior lifts Real Madrid

Despite the challenges, Vinícius Júnior took it upon himself to lead Real Madrid. just over half an hour into the game, the Brazilian forward opened the scoring, finding the net with a well-placed strike. in a show of solidarity, he ran to the sideline to embrace Ancelotti, who had publicly supported him after narrowly missing out on the Ballon d’Or. Before halftime, Jude Bellingham doubled Real Madrid's lead with a clever chip over the Osasuna goalkeeper, effectively putting the game out of reach for the visitors. the second half became Vinícius' showcase, as he scored two more goals to complete his hat-trick. his third goal came from a precise assist by goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, and he capped off the performance with a clinical finish for the final scoreline of 4-0.

Real Madrid’s title hopes stay alive

The victory reduces Real Madrid’s gap to league leaders Barcelona to six points, though Barcelona has a game in hand and will face Real Sociedad on Sunday. Madrid also has a match yet to play, as their fixture against Valencia was postponed due to recent flooding in Spain. Vinícius Júnior’s performance not only eased the pressure on Ancelotti but also re-energized Real Madrid’s title aspirations as they remain within striking distance of Barcelona. the focus now shifts to their next matches, as Madrid aims to maintain momentum in their pursuit of the La Liga title.
