Real Madrid tied with Sevilla in a new LaLiga matchday. The merengue team achieved an important draw in a match, which they could have ended up losing to an impressive performance by the rival team. Sevilla FC made their home team valid to obtain a positive result, however, the low point of the match was precisely some racist acts against the Real Madrid player, Vinicius Junior.

 

“Congratulations to Sevilla for the quick positioning and the penalty in another sad episode for Spanish football. Unfortunately I have access to a video of another racist act at this Saturday's game, this time carried out by a child. How sad that there is no one to educate her. I invest, and I invest a lot, in education in Brazil to form citizens with different attitudes.

In the images you can see the fan addressing Vinicius imitating the gestures of a monkey. The cameras focused on him, but the player himself pointed out on his social networks another sexist behavior from the stands, this time from a child. “Unfortunately I had access to a video of another racist act in this Saturday's game, this time carried out by a child. I am very sorry that there is no one to educate you,” declared the forward, who recalled his work in Brazil.

 

 

What Vinicius asks to eradicate racism

The Brazilian also asked the Spanish authorities to “change the legislation once and for all” and remembered the 2030 World Cup that will be held in our country. “I hope they do their part. The face of today's racist is reflected on websites as on many other occasions. These people must also be criminally punished. It would be a great first step in preparing for the 2030 World Cup. The Real Madrid player has been involved in controversies related to this situation on multiple occasions.
