Diomande puts Vinicius in real trouble, Mourinho under pressure
Diuamandi continues to shine during the match against Sevilla in the 9th round of La Liga, which ended with Real Madrid winning 4-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu, after he capped off the goal fest with a powerful shot with his right foot.
The Ivorian player showed a strong desire to score his own goal, as he did not stop trying until he succeeded in finding the net, confirming his determination and ability to make a difference in the attacking third.
Despite not being at his best in terms of finishing, Diomande remained a constant nuisance for Sevilla's defense, thanks to his movements and continuous attempts throughout the minutes of the match.
Diomandé's performance has drawn comparisons with Vinicius Junior, as the Ivorian winger showcased what the Brazilian star used to deliver in the past, in a match that revealed the difference between their current levels.
According to Spanish newspaper "Marca", the young player has provided much better defensive work and collective commitment than Vinicius Junior, as well as giving the team depth and the ability to penetrate opponents' defenses.
The newspaper concluded that if Portuguese coach José Mourinho is serious about applying the principle of merit, this matter requires an important and decisive decision from him immediately.
