Real Madrid Stars Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe Face Racial Abuse

Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe were subjected to racial abuse during their recent match against Real Oviedo, tarnishing Spanish football once again. The incident occurred as Los Blancos secured a 3-0 victory.

Abuse Directed at Vinicius and Mbappe

While Vinicius faced criticism for his gesture towards the Oviedo fans, footage from Movistar+ revealed that both Vinicius and Mbappe were targeted with monkey chants after celebrating Real Madrid’s third goal. The offensive chants were audible on multiple occasions during the game.

Real Oviedo’s Response to Racism

Following the racial abuse towards the players, Real Oviedo activated the racism protocol and made an announcement over the stadium loudspeaker. The referee’s involvement in addressing the incident is yet to be confirmed.

Vinicius’ Reaction on Social Media

It remains unclear if Vinicius was aware of the abuse, but his social media posts after the game hinted at his defiant attitude. Despite facing racism throughout his career, Vinicius continues to stand strong against such discriminatory behavior.

Racism has unfortunately become a recurring issue for Vinicius in La Liga, with previous incidents in matches against Real Sociedad and involvement in hanging effigies. The continuous support for Vinicius amidst these challenges is crucial in combating racism in football.
