Rafael van der Vaart launched a strong criticism of Vinicius Junior after Real Madrid's meeting with Bayern Munich, saying the Brazilian often frustrates him with the way he reacts to contact.
The former Netherlands international made it clear that he rates Vinicius highly as a footballer, but believes some of his on-field behaviour takes attention away from his talent.
The comments came after a demanding European night for Real Madrid, with Bayern limiting Vinicius for long spells in a fiercely contested match.
