Real Madrid player ratings vs Osasuna: You can shove your Ballon d'Or! Unstoppable Vinicius Junior bags hat-trick as Jude Bellingham finally joins the

The Brazilian delivered an outstanding display in a commanding victory, helping to alleviate the pressure on Carlo Ancelotti, who is facing additional injury challenges.

Vinicius Jr was the standout player as Real Madrid easily defeated Osasuna 4-0, helping to restore momentum to their season, even though injuries were still affecting the team.

The Brazilian netted three goals and posed a constant threat during his 75 minutes on the field. A fourth goal, assisted by Jude Bellingham, secured a solid victory and brought the team closer to catching Barcelona at the top of the standings.

The first half for Madrid was heavily impacted by injuries. Rodrygo had to leave the pitch after just 20 minutes, holding his thigh in discomfort. Shortly after, Eder Militao also had to be substituted due to what appeared to be a more serious issue, as he was seen yelling in pain while gripping the back of his right knee.

Even though the substitutions seemed to disrupt their rhythm, Los Blancos remained highly efficient. Vinicius got things started with a goal in the 35th minute, skillfully dribbling inside before powering the ball into the net. Bellingham quickly added to the tally with a beautiful lob, marking his first goal of the season.

Madrid really stepped up their game in the second half. Vinicius netted his second goal by receiving a long pass, getting past his defender, rounding the goalkeeper, and finishing into the net. He grabbed his third just before the 70-minute mark, tapping the ball into an open net after Brahim Diaz selflessly set him up inside the box. Despite some concerns beyond the injuries, particularly Kylian Mbappe's ongoing struggles in attack, it was truly Vinicius' moment - just under two weeks after a controversial snub for the Ballon d'Or. Overall, it looks like Madrid is finding their rhythm again.
