Real Madrid fullback Carvajal: Vini Jr was sublime

Real Madrid fullback Dani Carvajal was happy after their win at Osasuna.

Carvajal struck in the 4-2 triumph.

He later told Realmadrid TV: "We were the first in the table to play and also away from home. This is a fundamental win before our international matches. The team got the job done with a great game and we have achieved a wide margin to go into the break.

"We were able to read our opponents. They left a lot of space at the back, in several combinations we got into the box and managed to create chances."

"I got into the box, Fede set me up and I put it in with the outside of my boot. I tried to wrong-foot Herrera and it worked.

"This year I'm getting them, I'm happy and hopefully I'll continue with this streak at the end of the season to help the team reach our objectives."

Vini Jr scored twice and Carvajal added: "He was sublime, he did everything well, scoring goals and creating chances. He went got away from the opposition, dropped when he had to and he played a fantastic game. I want to congratulate him and I hope he keeps it up. I hope he's not like that in the next Spain-Brazil game, because I'll have to stop him."
