What a performance. What a player.
From the first whistle to the final moment, Vitinha was everywhere — dictating the tempo, breaking lines, and showing the world exactly why he’s one of the brightest talents in European football today. His vision, composure under pressure, and relentless energy anchored PSG’s midfield and proved vital in the team’s 4-0 victory.
He dictated the tempo, connected every part of PSG’s play, and scored a brilliant goal just before halftime to put the European champions firmly in control.
Head coach Luis Enrique hailed his performance as “world-class,” noting Vitinha’s ability to “control the rhythm of the game and inspire those around him.”
This comes just days after lifting the Nations League with Portugal — showing his unstoppable form and growing influence at the highest level.
With this kind of consistency and dominance on the biggest stages for both club and country, Vitinha is not just one of Europe’s brightest — he’s now firmly in the Ballon d’Or conversation.
