After La Liga refuses racist title in ‘Vini Jr case’, Spanish Federation hits back

the president of Spanish Football Federation sent a message to La Liga about the case of racism that involved vini jr during the match between Valence It is Real Madrid. The attacker was called a “monkey” and a series of other offenses while the ball was rolling at Mestalla, in addition to being expelled from the game for allegedly having attacked the rival. This Monday, the 22nd, the theme gained even more strength with a declaration of Javier Tebas.

Responsible for running La Liga, the president of the institution questioned Vini Jr and his attitude was heavily criticized. It was up to Luis Rubiales, president of the Spanish Football Federation, to criticize the Spanish leader for his statements. He sought to apologize to the Brazilian Football Confederation and also to the Real Madrid striker for what happened during the afternoon of last Sunday, 21.

I want to send a message to the president of the Brazilian football confederation to come to the RFEF house or I’m going to travel to Brazil to see what the Federation does with it. I ask him to ignore the behavior of the president of LaLiga. It was not the time to enter to debate this on Twitterr,” he said.

“This is a subject that has gained a dimension beyond football and it is not the first time. We have a problem in our country of education, of racism. We have a serious problem that stains an entire team, fans and an entire country. Vinícius or any player who receives any insult has my support and this from the Federation Some people talk about behavior on the field, but that’s what referees are for“, continued.

Javier Tebas refused to admit that La Liga is racist!

“1. Neither Spain nor LaLiga are racist, it’s very unfair to say that
2. From LaLiga we denounce and persecute racism with all the strength in our power
3. This season, racist insults were reported 9 times (8 of them were for insults against Vinicius). We always identify the crazy ones and report them to the sanctioning bodies. No matter how few there are, we are always relentless
4. We cannot allow the image of a competition that is, above all, a symbol of unity among peoples, to be tarnished, where more than 200 black players in 42 clubs receive the respect and affection of all fans on a daily basis, with racism an extremely specific case (9 complaints) that we are going to eradicate“, wrote the president of La Liga on his social network!
