Real Madrid victory disturbed by more racism directed at Vinicius Junior | Football news
Real Madrid secured a 1-0 victory in Real Sociedad in the semi-final conflict of the first leg of Copa del Rey, outraged by the further racist abuse of Brazilian international junior Vinicius.
Colleague Brazil forward Endrick has reached the only goal of the game In the first half in Real Arena in San Sebastian, northern Spain.
However, there was a controversy just before halftime when the match stopped because the singing “Asencio Die” focused on Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio.
On social networks, a video on social networks appeared to create a monkey gesture at Vinicius Junior while the game was stopped.
Fans have been channeling singing in the 22-year-old Beck Central Center in recent weeks, in various stadiums, but this was the first time the match had been stopped.
ASencio allegedly shared a sexually explicit video of a minor recorded by two former players in Real Madrid and is under investigation by the Spanish court.
The match was stopped just before halftime after Vinicius reported a tune against Asecio to the judge.
“Vinicius spoke to the referee, the referee stopped the game, applied the protocol, that had to happen,” coach Real Madrid’s coach Ancelotti told reporters.
The coach replaced the defender at halftime for Lucas Vazquez. “I took it [Vinicius Jr]Because of two things, he was hit and had a yellow card, so I preferred to take it off, “Ancelotti explained.
“I don’t think anyone likes to sing the stadium to die. I think he was hit in that sense. He wasn’t very happy, I preferred to take it off in the event that he feels he can influence the game.”
Real Sociedad striker Mikel Oyarzabal added: “The insults should be condemned, we do not like them … There are other ways to condemn the actions that others have committed. We do not think it is the right way.”
Pictures of racist abuse intended for Vinicius were quickly recirculated on the net, while with delayed matches, Sociedad posted a message on the big screen within the stadium: “Not racist, xenophobic and intolerant chants. Encourage and support the team while respecting the rivals.”
Vinicius has long been the target of racist abuse in Spanish football. In October, Four people were arrested and tested in Spain On suspicion of spending an internet hatred campaign against a 24-year-old.
In June last year, three Valencia fans were sentenced to eight months in prison for hate crimes against the attacker. It was a significant case, because these were the first condemnations for racist insults at the football stadium in Spain.
Spanish and European champions Madrid will entertain Sociedad on April 1 on the second leg at their Santiago Bernabeu stadium for the right to meet or Barcelona or Atletico Madrid in the finals.
Endrick’s strike from the 19th minute, finishing with the outside of the boots after running on Jude Bellingham’s diagonal ball, was enough to ask for the first relationship.
Madrid was without a French superstar Kylian Mbappe after a dental problem, as well as Fede Valverde and Thibaut Courtois.
On Saturday, Ancelotti decided to turn his side before his visit to Face Real Betis in Laliga next week of the Champions League of the last 16 conflicts against Atletico Madrid, and, making seven changes in the overall number of Sunday’s 2-0 victory against Girona.
Despite his numerous replacements, including the starts for Arda Guler, Fran Garcia and Eduard Camaving, Madrid has put a solid account.
Endrick sent Los Blancosa forward when Bellingham sent an 18-year-old striker to the goal.
After taking one touches for control, he struck his home with his other Endrick stylishly at near the post.
That was his sixth goal of the campaign, four of those who came to Copa del Rey, where Ancelotti gave him the most chance of shining.
Bellingham, who missed the Madrid victory through the suspension over the weekend, looked refreshed and helped his side to stay mainly at the top.
Vinicius approached the low shoot that Alex Remiro intended safely. Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin made a fine double savings at the beginning of the second half to keep Mikel Oyarzabal and Takefus Kubo on the bay.
Madrid approached a second at the other end when Endrick broke down a shot at the bar from the edge of the box.
Remiro made a fine storage to push Bellingham’s rejected strike, then another one to prevent the same Long Ranga player in the last stages, maintaining Nade Real Sociedad to return the second leg.
In the second semi -final first leg on Tuesday Atletico Madrid returned to draw 4-4 with a record 31-time winners of the Barcelona Cup.
