Shortly after full-time, Vinicius beckoned Real Madrid team-mate Jude Bellingham over in the Wembley tunnel and teasingly asked if the England star wanted him to sign his shirt as they traded jerseys, with the 20-year-old laughing and jokingly replying ‘No quiero’, or ‘I don’t want it’ in English.
Both players had brought two of their shirts with them, with Bellingham giving one of his to Vinicius and the other to Rodrygo – who he also plays alongside at the Bernabeu.
Bellingham looked a little perplexed about who Vinicius’ second shirt was for and asked the Brazilian, who replied that it was for Rice, who presumably asked for the jersey when they were on the pitch.
As the camera panned round we could see his Real teammate Jude Bellingham heading over with a grin on his face. After a friendly embrace, the former Birmingham City and Borussia Dortmund midfielder handed over his shirt before appearing to ask the winger if he wanted anyone else's shirt.
After thinking for a moment, Vinicius Jr can clearly be heard responding: "Rice," to which Bellingham turned round and asked an unknown figure if this could be sorted for the 23-year-old. This small act will clearly mean a lot to Rice who had a good game despite a disappointing night for the Three Lions.
