Eduardo Camavinga didn’t feel like going radio silent after Real Madrid’s embarrassing 4-0 loss to Barcelona.
Most of the Los Blancos players opted to go quiet, but the Frenchman seemed to be rather proud of his performance at the Santiago Bernabeu.
After the match, the young midfielder posted an interesting picture on his Instagram.
In the snap, he can be seen controlling the ball and trying to maneuver his way past 5 Barcelona players around him.
Those familiar with popular football pictures will take little time realizing that this is very similar to a popular picture where Andres Iniesta was surrounded by 5 Italy players in Euro 2012.
The 21-year-old midfielder has faced some criticism for his social media antics.
Some fans believe he has no right to try to highlight his personal heroics in a game where Real Madrid were collectively battered.
How are you posting that after a loss?

But Camavinga actually stood out from the rest. He won 10 duels, made two tackles and seven possession recoveries to add a spark in midfield.
Neither of the goals stemmed from his faults and he did his job perfectly when the others around him failed.
That’s why he’s probably justified to celebrate his personal good work in what was a bad day in the office for Los Blancos.
