The Brazilian ace took the responsibility against the Blaugrana side, but he failed to convert his first effort from the spot.

As things stand, Real Madrid fans will be missing Karim Benzema's effectiveness from the spot, especially since his replacement failed to score in his first try as Los Merengues' first choice to take penalties.

The man in question is none other than Vinicius, who took the ball and tried to find the back of the net in El Clásico against Barcelona. The Brazilian ace struck the ball hard and even managed to send Marc-André Ter Stegen the other way, but his shot was not accurate enough and ended hitting the crossbar. With this miss, Barcelona were able to hold on to their 1-0 lead after 45 minutes.

The first penalty for Vinicius at Real Madrid raised harsh criticism from legends such as Hugo Sánchez, who was part of a crew covering the game and hinted that Vinicius' stance prior to taking the shot was not right, meaning that he was doomed to fail the shot right from the beginning.
