Real Madrid superstar, Vinicius Jr. has labelled his club’s fans criminals following racist attacks on Barcelona youngster, Lamine Yamal.
Yamal faced racist abuse during Real Madrid’s LaLiga clash against Barcelona on Saturday.
Los Blancos were helpless as they watched Barça thrash them 4-0 at Santiago Bernabeu in the season’s first El Clasico.
Robert Lewandowski scored in the 54th and 56th minutes and Lamine Yamal made it three. Raphinha completed the scoreline at the 84th minute.
A major talking point after the game was the reported racist and xenophobic slurs directed at Yamal.
Barça Universal reports that the deplorable incident occurred while the youngster celebrated with his teammates.
Celebrating his goal, Yamal performed Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic ‘calma’ and followed it up with Vinicius’ dance routine and this seems to have displeased Madridistas in the stands.
“It is regrettable what happened yesterday at the Bernabéu with racist insults. There is no place for these criminals in our society,” Vinicius wrote on social media via MadridXtra.
“All my support to Lamine, Ansu and Raphinha. I know that Madrid and the police will do things to identify and punish the guilty!”
