Getafe fans greeted the Real Madrid players’ bus with racist insults against Vinicius on Thursday evening.

For the reception of Real Madrid, the supporters of Getafe, a city in the southern suburbs of the capital, waited for the arrival of the Merengues bus at the Estadio Coliseum before the derby on the program for this Thursday evening (9 p.m.), in a match postponed from the 20th day of La Liga.

Unfortunately, Getafe fans made racist insults towards Vinicius, shouting “ Vinicius mono » (for Vinicius monkey), as journalist Maribel De Jesús showed on X. While the Brazilian attacker probably heard nothing from inside the vehicle…

“Vini” is regularly targeted in stadiums in Spain. His behavior is often provocative, but that absolutely does not excuse acts of racism. Last October, the Brazilian winger was the target of racist cries from the public at the Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium during a clash against Sevilla (1-1).
