Real Madrid attacker Rodrygo Goes was happy to prove the matchwinner against Rayo Vallecano last night.

Rodrygo dedicated the goal to teammate Vinicius Jr after Sunday's race storm at Valencia.

He said, “It's special to get on the scoresheet again, I have to keep it up. We were expecting a difficult game. We were up against a very good team but we played well. We struggled at times, but in the end I'm so happy to get my goal, we're all pleased."

“I dedicated the goal to my brother, Vini. We're always together, we have been through so much together because we left Brazil at such a young age. Coming to this club, with its greatness, winning it all with this team and now to have to go through this situation is so sad. I include myself in this because I am black as well. I want to send him my best and let him know I will always be there for him, he knows that. We will continue to fight against racism.

“It's been special, all the support for Vini has been beautiful. The things that have happened to him could happen to a lot of players. We know that it has happened time and again in football in the past. But we're happy because we've seen the world come together to fight this."
