Once again Vinicius was victim of racism in Spain and this is what he said about it

The Real Madrid winger had problems with some Sevilla fans.

This Saturday Real Madrid traveled to southern Spain to face Sevilla at the Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium. The hosts had scored the opener 29 minutes into the second half through David Alaba's own goal. But moments later Dani Carvajal netted the equaliser and saved them from suffering their second defeat of the season.

 

However, the result of the match and the team's performance were quickly forgotten and all attention was focused on an unpleasant situation involving Vinicius Junior. Just like what had happened in a match against Valencia in the previous season, the Brazilian winger was the victim of racism in Seville.

During the match, a fan of the host team made gestures to him imitating a monkey, which forced the security agents to look for him and expel him from the stadium. But it wasn't just one: a few hours after the match, images of another Sevilla fan, this time a child, doing the same thing came to light.

Vini posted a message on social media talking about this and said: "Congratulations to Sevilla for their quick positioning and punishment in another sad episode for Spanish soccer. Unfortunately I had access to a video of another racist act in this Saturday's match, this time starring a child. I am very sorry that there is no one to educate you. I invest, and I invest a lot, in education in Brazil to form citizens with attitudes different from these."

 

He is concerned about this

Then the Brazilian winger went on to say, “I hope the Spanish authorities do their part and change the legislation once and for all. These people should also be criminally punished. It would be a great first step in preparation for the 2030 World Cup. I am available to help. Sorry to sound repetitive, but this is isolated episode number 19. And counting...”
