After Vinicius Jr got racially abused against Sevilla on October 21, 2022, the Europa League reigning Champions took quick action by immediately expelling the child from the pitch.
The Brazilian was so happy about Sevilla’s action against the young Sevilla fan who racially abused him.
He revealed this via his Twitter account, saying, “Congratulations to Sevilla for their quick positioning and punishment in yet another sad episode of Spanish football.”
“Unfortunately, I had access to a video of another racist act in this Saturday’s match, this time carried out by a child.”
“I am very sorry that there is no one to educate you. I invest, and I invest a lot, in education in Brazil to form citizens with attitudes different from these.”
Sevilla removed the offender, and he was handed over to the right authority and will be charged to court on the basis of xenophobia and racist behavior.
Sevilla are also interested in the revocation of the fan’s club membership, and he may also be banned for life from attending any Sevilla match.
The Real Madrid star had been racially targeted on many occasions in La Liga. After the game, Sevilla quickly reacted to the incident after the 1-1 draw against Real Madrid, saying
“Sevilla FC condemns all racist and xenophobic behavior and will work closely with the authorities to ensure that action is taken accordingly. This behavior does not belong at Sevilla FC.”
“The individual will also be subject to the club’s vigorous internal disciplinary protocols and have their membership revoked.”
A video appeared showing an old man and a young fan making a racist monkey gesture to the Real Madrid winger following a confrontation with the Sevilla players in the 86th minute of the game.
