Real Madrid ace Vinicius Jr once again faced racist comments from fans during Real Madrid’s match against Girona yesterday. This wasn’t the first time Vini Jr. faced comments from fans, as he has complained to higher officials of the league about the kind of racial slurs he has to face day in and day out during matches.
On Tuesday, during Real Madrid’s match against Girona, fans were reportedly calling Vini Jr. “MONO“. Mono in Spanish means Monkey. This hasn’t gone well with the player who has reportedly requested La Liga to take some action against such behaviors.
Real Madrid too stood behind their player Vini Jr. and said that they don’t support any kind of racist behavior. It is to be seen if after so many of these situations taking place, will La Liga finally take some strict actions.
The Brazilian winger has been a constant receiver of similar chants wherever he plays. Even Atletico Madrid fans surfed the wave to go to extraordinary lengths to humiliate the star forward.
