Here are the numbers behind the Brazilian. For the bigger picture, see our <a href=\"\/us\/world-cup-2026\/\">World Cup 2026<\/a> hub.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Vinicius Jr stats: club and country by the numbers<\/h2>\n<p>From a teenage prodigy at Flamengo to a Champions League-winning star at Real Madrid, Vinicius has developed into a relentless attacking force. His record for club and country reads:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Team<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Apps<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Goals<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Assists<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Chances created<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Real Madrid<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">349<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">114<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">72<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">518<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Flamengo<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">42<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">7<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">4<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">20<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Brazil<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">50<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">10<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">7<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">&ndash;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<h2>What the numbers say<\/h2>\n<p>Vinicius blends end product with chaos. His 114 Real Madrid goals came from an expected-goals figure of 88.9 and his 72 assists from an expected-assists figure of 46.5, beating both, and he has created 518 chances for the club. He lives in dangerous areas, racking up 2,464 touches in the opposition box, and he is a nightmare to defend one-on-one, winning 18 penalties as defenders are dragged into fouls.<\/p>\n\n<h2>A creator as much as a scorer<\/h2>\n<p>For all the goals, Vinicius makes as many as he takes. The 72 assists and 518 chances created underline a winger who beats his man and picks out team-mates, and his pace in transition makes Real Madrid and Brazil lethal on the counter. Defenses rarely deal with him for a full 90 minutes.<\/p>\n\n<h2>How Vinicius Jr fared in Brazil&#8217;s opener<\/h2>\n<p>Vinicius was Brazil&#8217;s brightest spark in a 1-1 draw with Morocco to open their World Cup 2026 at MetLife Stadium. He scored Brazil&#8217;s goal, finishing into the top-right corner from inside the box, and created two big chances for team-mates that went unconverted, also driving Brazil forward with five passes into the final third. It was the performance of a forward carrying the attack, even as Brazil were frustratingly held to a draw.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Vinicius Jr at the World Cup 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Brazil are among the contenders for the World Cup 2026, and Vinicius is their most explosive attacker. If he hits top form, few defenses in the tournament can live with him. See where Brazil sit in our <a href=\"\/us\/news\/who-will-win-the-world-cup-2026\/\">who will win the World Cup 2026<\/a> guide, and how the knockouts are laid out in our <a href=\"\/us\/news\/world-cup-2026-bracket\/\">World Cup 2026 bracket<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Why Vinicius Jr is a must-watch<\/h2>\n<p>Pace, trickery and an ever-improving end product: Vinicius is one of the most watchable players in the world and central to Brazil&#8217;s hopes.
