Before Fortaleza vs Vasco, clubs surprise in action against racism

Before the ball rolls in the match between Strength x Basque, the two clubs surprised fans when announcing their respective lineups. The teams put the players in the arts, but did not name the black athletes. Minutes later, the teams demonstrated with the right teams and texts against racism in society. The attitude came after vini jr being attacked last Sunday, 21, in Mestalla, in the match between Real Madrid and Valencia.

On that occasion, for the game Fortaleza x Vasco, both clubs used the same type of demonstration to take a stand against racism. The attitude raised doubts among the fans, who did not understand why the lineups did not have the names of some players. In a note, the two teams expressed themselves against the regrettable racist acts that have taken place in many football matches.

“In the job market, in university classrooms, in management positions, in politics. In a country with a black majority, it is not common to see black people in these areas, and this is a reflection of a racism that goes far beyond insult and injury. It is to defeat him that we raise this flag.

For RESPECT, EQUALITY and INCLUSION.

For black people to occupy all spaces, not just on a football field, but in all of society. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

◉ All athletes were consulted for the execution of this action“.
