Vinicius Jr., who claims to have experienced racist insults on Friday night, lambasted La Liga in an impassioned post.
For their La Liga match at Valladolid, Real Madrid started the Brazilian.
He participated for 88 minutes as Real won to kick off their comeback.
Karim Benzema‘s late brace gave Los Blancos a 2-0 victory and all three points.
Sadly, social media users saw videos of Valladolid supporters allegedly racially taunting Vinicius as he walked across the field after being replaced.
Vinicius made his way to the dugout and was taunted while being pelted with objects.
Vinicius Jr criticizes La Liga following racial insults.
On Saturday afternoon, Vinicius Jr used social media to criticize La Liga for the alleged racist remarks.
Additionally, he has promised to ignore the racists and keep his head held high.
He wrote: “Racists keep going to the stadiums and watching the biggest club in the world up close and La Liga continues to do nothing…
“I will continue with my head held high and celebrate my victories and Madrid’s. In the end it’s MY fault.”
It is alarming that racist insults are still directed at players.
To effectively eradicate racial insults from the beautiful game, more needs to be done.
