El Clasico: Vinicius seeks to enter Madrid’s top 10 scorers

The history of the ‘Clasicos’ is inherent to that of their goalscorers. From Real Madrid’s point of view, there are many legends who have created their space in the history books of the ‘Merengue’ institution by being especially good against Barcelona. Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema.

BeSoccer compiles a list of the Madrid players who have scored the most against the ‘Cules’, with Vinicius at the gates of entering the ‘ranking’.

What would the ‘Clasicos’ be without their top scorers? Messi showing his jersey to the Santiago Bernabeu stands, Raul Gonzalez Blanco shushing the Camp Nou… The history of these legendary clashes is in their results, in their unforgettable moments and in their goal scorers, which, from the ‘Merengue’ perspective, BeSoccer reviews in a historical ranking of scorers in official matches.

Vinicius is on the verge of entering this ranking. The Brazilian, one of Real Madrid’s biggest stars, is just one goal away from equaling four historic players of the ‘Merengue’ side: Ivan Zamorano, Jaime Lazcano, Pahino and Sabino Barinaga.

To score, to do so against their greatest rival and in a Copa del Rey final is something that is within the reach of very few players. That is what Vinicius aspires to, and he also wants to silence the most critical voices about his season.
