Real Madrid superstar Vinicius Junior has said that he is looking forward to playing against Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic away from home at Celtic Park in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening, as quoted in The Daily Record.
La Liga giants Madrid will kick off their UEFA Champions League campaign this evening when they take on defending Scottish Premiership champions Celtic in Glasgow.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side won the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League last season.
Vinicius Junior has established himself as one of the best players at Madrid and is one of the best young players in the world.
And the 22-year-old Brazilian is looking forward to playing against Celtic at Celtic Park, although he has admitted that he does not watch too many games of the Hoops.
Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior on Celtic
The Daily Record quotes Vinicius Junior as saying: “Celtic are very strong, they run very hard. To be honest, I’ve not seen many of their games and I should probably watch some more before the game.
“But we are going to turn up and play our own normal game and it’s the other team that has to adapt to us, we are not going to change for anyone.
“I absolutely love playing in a packed stadium with a lot of pressure on me. That’s what we like doing at Real Madrid. So hopefully, we can perform and come away with a victory.”
Exciting game at Celtic Park
In our view, the UEFA Champions League game between Celtic and Real Madrid this evening will be a very exciting game of football.
Celtic are the underdogs, but playing at home will give them some advantage.
An early goal for the Hoops could be massive for them, and Madrid cannot get complacent.
