After Real Madrid's triumph: Vinicius mocks the historic trophy

Vinicius Junior had some fun at the trophy's expense. Following Real Madrid's 1-0 win over Deportivo La Coruna on Wednesday, the Brazilian was spotted chatting to members of the Los Blancos coaching staff and appearing to mock the shape of the Teresa Herrera Trophy.

Brahim Diaz settled it. The Moroccan struck in the 45+1 minute to hand Real the silverware, latching onto a long-range pass from Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.

That trophy takes its design from the Tower of Hercules (Torre de Hércules), one of La Coruna's most prominent landmarks, giving it a huge and distinctive shape.
