Rudiger's advice to Vinicius: 'He has to focus on playing'
Antonio Rudiger wanted to give Vinicius some advice at a press conference. The Real Madrid player assured that the Brazilian has to focus on playing and ignore the provocations of the rest.
Real Madrid's German centre-back Antonio Rudiger advised his team-mate Vinicius Junior to focus "on playing" and not get involved in provocations, because he assured that, when he does, "he is one of the best".
However, the 'merengue' player, in the press conference prior to the Champions League match against Liverpool, pointed out that being so young it is difficult to put up with being "kicked so much" and "provoked".
"Vinicius has to focus on the way he plays because, when he does, he's one of the best, but it's also difficult when you get kicked and provoked so much when you're young and going through a learning process," he told a press conference.
Rüdiger called on the referees to measure the treatment given to Vinicius. "The referees have to do a better job with him and treat everyone the same, no better and no worse.
