Boggles the mind that you can racially abuse a black player when your own team has black players but think it's ok 'cos he's an opposition player!

Luis Rubiales kept it 100% real here, i gotta respect the honesty
Spain is one of the most racist countries in the world.
Vinicius is a big crybaby like most brazilians neymar.
2023 and we're still unable to be better beings…
Am a hardcore Real Madrid fan, am not a Black but for first time I feel Vini should leave Laliga. Laliga doesnt deserve Vini. Shame on Laliga and it's president. Time to premier league to take over Vini
Mampus tebas2 argument kok kaya emak2
Vini should just take actions and leave La Liga. Many clubs would want to have him anyway.
Racism is disgusting. But it should never enrage a professional sportsman who is exposed on the field. Otherwise, fans of the opponents on the field will use it for getting him off the field.
I thought Tebass was a Madrid fan and hated Barca. Hes not even standing up for his own favourite team’s player
All sponsors must leave La Liga
Some People always want balck players just to keep playing during Racist moments in Soccer… How many dam bananas is man suppose to eat to play the sport he loves. How many racist dolls that hang from bridges do they have to see before game. How many times do you have to be fouled on purpose due to the fact you're black do you have to put up with ? The silence from other players and Coaches in the Spaninsh league about this says so much. Here is what knowone wants to say there are some fans/players/coaches/owners who just don't want men and women of color to play the so called beautiful game …becuse isn't beautiful… it's just Racist.
Gotta laugh really …La liga just says nothing will change…gotta love the Spanish…they don't do black.
La Liga sponsors need to step up and decide which moral values align with its global brand image. We are watching, we are waiting….
Come the the epl brother sign for man utd be treated like a human being
