He revealed that his former teammate, Croatian midfielder Luka Modric, whom he says they \u201cmiss\u201d, taught him how to execute that type of shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLuka Modric taught me; we miss him. I&#8217;m very happy with the match. We&#8217;ve done very well from the start in pressing and in possession. If we play like this, we&#8217;re always going to win,\u201d he told &#8216;Real Madrid TV&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHopefully, I can continue scoring goals like that. This is one of the most beautiful I&#8217;ve scored. A good goal, and I&#8217;m happy with that,\u201d added Vinicius Junior, who, with Tuesday&#8217;s goal, has now scored seven goals against Levante in eight appearances. \u201cA very difficult ground, but whenever I come here, I score goals. Looking ahead to the derby, we&#8217;ve won every match, and we want to continue like this. We&#8217;re really looking forward to the derby. Now, it&#8217;s time to rest and enjoy the victory, and hopefully, we can win on Saturday,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Vinicius Junior highlighted the keys to Real Madrid&#8217;s strong start to the season, with seven wins in seven matches &#8211; six in the league and one in the Champions League. \u201cThe defence, the unity, and the teamwork. If we continue like this, we can achieve a lot this season,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vinicius Junior, who opened the scoring in Real Madrid&#8217;s win against Levante, spoke to the club&#8217;s official television<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1005,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1004","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1004"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1004\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1006,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1004\/revisions\/1006"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1005"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1004"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1004"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1004"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
