REAL MADRID stars Karim Benzema and Vinicius Jr. appear to have mocked Barcelona following their 2-0 defeat to Bayern Munich last night.
Second-half goals from Lucas Hernandez and Leroy Sane allowed Bayern Munich to claim another victory against Barcelona.
And following the Bundesliga champion’s victory, Los Blancos stars Benzema and Vinicius posted a thinly veiled dig at their rivals.
Benzema posted an image of him holding the Champions League trophy on his Instagram story, and paired it with the caption: “Good night.”
Vinicius followed suit, posting an image of him in training laughing with team-mates.
Real Madrid fans online saw the funny side of the stories, while a number of Barcelona fans, understandably aggravated by the dig, declared the pair were “obsessed” with the Blaugrana.
