Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior was delighted to help his team to victory over Real Valladolid.

His late strike deflected off Kiko Olivas and into the net to get Real Madrid up and running against Real Valladolid on Saturday.

It may have been an own goal, but he celebrated it as if it was his.

"I thought of scoring," he told Real Madrid TV after the game, when asked for his thoughts as he was being substituted on.

"It was with the help of all the other players that I was able to score my first goal.

"When I had the ball I thought I could score.

"I counted 'one, two, three' and shot hard."
