Vinicius went straight to the changing room and joined his teammates about five minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>He did not mention Alonso in his apology regarding X.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sometimes passion gets the better of us,&#8221; Vinicius said. &#8220;I always want to win and help the team. My competitive nature stems from my love for this club and everything it stands for. I promise to continue to fight every second for Real Madrid, as I have done since day one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Vinicius is now being substituted more frequently than under his previous Madrid manager. He also did not start in several games.<\/p>\n<p>During the Clasico, he exchanged words with Barcelona star Lamine Yamal and was involved in a scuffle between players after the match. <\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/vinicius-junior-apology-real-madrid-c28fa4e0906fbe6a53e622e4e040e245\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MADRID (AP) \u2014 Vinicius Junior has apologized to Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso, who he substituted during the Clasico against Barcelona, \u200b\u200bfor verbally abusing him, citing his &#8220;passion&#8221;
