Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Jr was delighted to be back for victory over Las Palmas.

It marked his 100th win as a Real Madrid player.

Vinicius Jr later said: “There are so many beautiful moments and lots of wins. To reach the 100-mark in this jersey so quickly is hugely significant but I don't want to stop here. I want to keep it up with another 100, 200 or 300 and write my name into this club's history books. I want to keep winning and lifting trophies.

“We're all very happy to keep picking up points and getting better. That's the path we have to follow. Things are easy when you're scoring goals. We took a while to get off the mark today but in the end things come off when you create a lot of chances.

“I'm really happy to be back after a month out. It doesn't seem like long but they have been difficult days for me, working morning, noon and night to get back to my best. I have to keep improving and picking up that match fitness.

“All the doctors and physios do everything they can to get the injured players back as soon as possible. It's sad not to be able to help our team. It's really hard work. We have to do gym work, physio, water stuff... but the club gives us everything we need to do it in the best and fastest way possible."

He added, “I'm thrilled to feel that love from the fans. Every time I come here and pull on this jersey, or whenever I'm out in the street, the fans show such love for me. I'm so happy about it and to be back helping the team. We have to keep playing strongly to win LaLiga and take all the important points still to come."
