Barcelona Vs Real Madrid: Ansu Fati Vs Vinícius, the future has arrived
For many years, this coming Sunday, the Spanish and the world will be experiencing the first Clásico of the Liga BBVA without Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, which will be played at the Barcelona Camp Nou stadium.
It should be remembered that Messi and Ronaldo became a legendary Spanish League duel from 2009 to 2018, which came to an end that year after the Portuguese left the white team for Turin to play for Juventus.
While the departure of Lionel Messi was this past summer bound for Paris, to play for PSG, the most successful club in all of France. So this summer has ended what was an era of Messi in Barcelona.
The truth of all this is that neither Messi nor Cristiano is there to play the Spanish classics, will these games have lost attraction? It must be taken into account that both players were a striking extra for these games, but everything seems to indicate that both clubs already have their star players for the classic.
New cycle and new players for the superclassic
Both Spanish clubs have lost their top figure, Real Madrid since 2018 seems to find no substitute for CR7, while Barcelona is just beginning to raise its head since the departure of its top star.
However, everything seems to indicate that this new season opens new cycles of players in Spanish football and that is how the two largest in Spain already have candidates to make forget the absences of Messi and Cristiano in these games.
These are two very young players with a talent to spare who could easily make their top scorers forget, something that may seem crazy given their young ages. They are Ansu Fati, a young player who has been growing little by little in the Spanish club and Vinicius who this season with Ancelotti seems to find his best form.
Ansu Fati and Vinícius
Ansu Fati at his age already has better records than Messi's, so Barcelona bets everything on him. While Vinícius, who has already spent several seasons with Madrid playing as a starter, now with Carlos Ancelotti as technical director seems to find his best football moment.
This is how Ansu Fati and Vinícius claim their positions, both want to take the crowns that Messi and Ronaldo have set free.
Just a week after the Spanish superclassic was played, both players have been protagonists in their teams. The Barça player for scoring a great goal against Valencia for the triumph of his team.
While Vinícius for scoring two goals during the visit to Shakhtar, the second goal was a spectacular goal where he showed his skills with the ball.
Once the departure of the Argentine star from Barcelona was known, the young Ansu Fati did not hesitate to replace him, so the number 10 was going to be his. "For me, it is not any pressure to carry the 10 on my back, nobody is going to match what Leo has done. I have to follow my own path" said the future of Barcelona, who will be just 19 years old on October 31.
Ansu Fati
The Hispano-Guinean is becoming a very precocious talent, which has not been seen for a long time in Spanish football. Ansu Fati debuted for Barcelona with only 16 years and 298 days in 2019, thus becoming the second-youngest player to debut in the major.
That is how it did not take him a week to score his first goal with the team, becoming the youngest player in Barcelona to score in the first division.
His first victim was the Osasuna. While for the Champions League he also broke a record by becoming the youngest player to score, this time it was against Inter of Italy.
At just 17 years old, this young player had already made his debut with Barcelona, with his national team against Germany and scoring a goal against Ukraine.
Everything seemed to indicate that we were seeing a replacement for Messi or even someone better than the Argentine.
However, all the good and delightful news regarding this player would turn tragic when his knee injury became known, which kept him off the playing field for around 10 months.
Despite being out of the field for so long, Ansu Fati has proven to be the same as always, a very fast, powerful and vertical player and above all with a lot of goal. On his return to the courts it did not take him 10 minutes to score again, this time against Levante.
In the match against Valencia he made a great goal that shows his category. So Barcelona no longer seems to have any doubt about who will be the best substitute for its top scorer Messi, so this young player of only 18 years is becoming the top figure of the Spanish club and has everything to rub shoulders with the best of the world.
Vinicius Junior
The path of the Brazilian has not been easy or as full of success as that of Ansu Fati. The Brazilian striker made his debut for Real Madrid at the age of 18 and since then the criticism began to fall on him, especially for the mistakes he made on his debut.
Vinícius had a good first season with Real Madrid, which allowed him to continue at the club.
However, the following two seasons everything seemed to indicate that the Brazilian was stagnating. The scoring figures were very low, his constant failures against rival goals cast doubt on him and his abilities.
Confidence in him (Vinícius) was more than lost for most, where many forgot that he was only a 20-year-old and who has a long way to go to mature in the sports world and to improve his physical condition.
But the truth of everything is that this season everything has changed for the better. The player has found greater football maturity, this may be due to the great confidence that he gives Ancelotti, who has recovered a large part of the Madrid squad, where many players were missing with Zidane.
The only reality is that the Brazilian is becoming one of the stars of Real Madrid alongside Benzem a and has been able to position himself among one of the best scorers in Europe. This season he has managed to add 07 goals in 11 games, showing that there is a Vinícius different from that of previous seasons.
Many of the seven goals he has scored have been goals from a pure scorer, such as the second goal he scored against Shakhtar in the group stage of the Champions League, a goal in the style of a world star.
While Real Madrid are waiting for Mbappé to arrive next summer, for now they are excited about a Vinícius who seems to have a dream season. The Brazilian knows that his time has come in the white team, so he must take advantage of it.
