First thing to remember in our analysis is that we evaluate Vinicius Júnior’s Shots Map until 25-05-2025 in La Liga. In other words, we analyse the shots that Vini Jr takes and the places where he usually scores goals.

Vinicius Júnior (24y) – Shots Map
🇪🇸 𝐋𝐚 𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐚
We decided to evaluate the shots from Real Madrid’s Star: Vinícius Júnior 🇧🇷
🔴 Goals
⚪️ Other Shots
1. In 2024/25, we spot an overload of shots in the left zone, largely due to the introduction of Mbappé centrally.
2. Most Goals are from the central zone!

As shown above, and between this two seasons, we decided to look at his shots map in the League. After all, the first significant difference on this map is the difference in xG and Goals between the 2024/25 season and the 2023/24 season. In the 2024/25 Season, Vinicius Júnior had worse performance in this two metrics. As can be seen, in terms of the location of the shots, there are some interesting points:
- Most of Vini’s shots are on the left side. In the 2024/25 season, we’ve seen a huge increase of shots from outside the box.
- In this two seasons, Vini scored three goals from outside the box in La Liga.
- In the 2024/25 season, you can spot a lot more shot density on the left side. With the introduction of Mbappe to the team, Vinicius Júnior lost margin to roam since that centre space was occupied by the French Foward.
First thing to remember is that, looking at the shots, we can identify a player that has lost a space to roam freely. While last season we saw goals from all areas, this season is marked by the density on the shots on the left side of the attack.
