The moment Vinicius scored a remarkably similar goal to the one he sunk Liverpool with in the Champions League final... in training at the Stade de France on the day before Real Madrid conquered Europe!

Footage has emerged of Real Madrid hero Vinicius scoring a goal similar to his Champions League final winner, just hours before the showpiece in Paris.

The Brazilian international evaded the clutches of Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold to tap home the winner, handing the Spanish giants a 14th success in the competition.

But the goal looks to have been constructed on the training ground the day before the final as Madrid were fine-tuning their preparations.

The training ground drill shows that just as he did in the final, Vinicius arrives late at the back post to fire home from close range leading some to believe it was part of the plan.
