🚨 Real Madrid hand UEFA evidence of racism against Vinicius | OneFootball

Real Madrid has taken action following the serious incidents that occurred last Tuesday at the Estadio da Luz.

The club has officially submitted all graphic and testimonial evidence to UEFA regarding the racist attacks directed at Vinicius Junior during the Champions League match against SL Benfica.

Through an official statement, the Madrid entity has confirmed its active collaboration in the investigation opened by the European body. The goal is to identify and sanction the "unacceptable episodes of racism" that marred the sporting event in Portugal.

Unconditional Support for Vinicius Jr.

One of the key points of the statement is the unconditional support for Vinicius Jr. The club wanted to publicly thank the expressions of affection and the unanimous support the Brazilian has received from the international football community after once again being the target of insults.

This response from Real Madrid reaffirms its historic commitment against intolerance. The management assures that it will continue to work hand in hand with institutions to eradicate violence and hatred both in football stadiums and in society in general.

UEFA is expected to analyze the evidence provided in the coming days. Depending on the severity of the reports, Benfica could face heavy financial penalties or partial closure of its stadium.
