Vinicius' Message: "I Am a Tormentor of Racists"
For the first time in Spain's history, two individuals will receive prison sentences for making racist insults in football stadiums, specifically towards Vinicius.
The Real Madrid player didn't miss the opportunity to express his views on the matter through his social media, celebrating that such an act has been punished exemplarily.
"May the racists be afraid, ashamed, and hide in the shadows. I thank Real Madrid and La Liga for this historic sentence," Vinicius posted on his social media. True to his style, Vinicius also declared himself a "tormentor of racists."
The specific case that was condemned occurred on May 21, 2023, during a league match between Valencia and Real Madrid at Mestalla, where three young men attacked the Brazilian footballer with gestures and racist insults.
