The match at the Reale Arena, for whom Vinicius was the captain of Real Madrid for the first time, was frustrating for the Brazilian superstar, who had a hard time having a significant impact during his 84 minutes of play. However, that was not important in the end, since Los Blancos won the victory which allows them to reach the final of the King this season.
Unfortunately, the evening turned to vinegar when Vinicius was the victim of racist abuse. Diario As filmed the moment when a Real supporter made a monkey gesture towards the 24 -year -old.
It is depressing, but it is not the first time that Vinicius has been the target of racist abuses on the part of opposing supporters. There have been previous incidents in Mestalla and her Moix, to name just a few, but there have been more, and this led to the introduction of more severe sanctions for offenders, some having been threatened with prison.
An open investigation
Real is expected to react to these incidents, which will almost certainly open an investigation to find the person in question. The Spanish Football Federation could also take measures, as is La Liga, although the match does not fall under its competence.
It turns out that Vinicius was not the only Real Madrid player to have been the target of abuse during the 90 minutes in San Sebastian. Another Diario AS report indicates that defender Raul Asencio was subjected to songs of “Asencio, Meurs” during the first half. The young defender, who was playing at the right back post, was replaced at halftime by Lucas Vazquez.
