Real Madrid achieved a draw (1-1) against Sevilla, in a match that started with an own goal by David Alaba. The 'meringues' reacted thanks to Dani Carvajal, who saved the game at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán. However, the result was not the most remarkable thing in LaLiga, as the stands once again protagonized a racist act: everything happened after the push from Vinicius Junior to Nyland. A fan made the monkey gesture, referring to the Brazilian, and unleashed excitement among the rest of the fans.

Sevilla acted quickly to identify the aggressor, as they informed minutes after the match ended: "Sevilla FC wants to communicate that, after detecting a xenophobic and racist behavior from a fan in their stands, they have proceeded with their identification, expulsion from the stadium, and report to the police authorities."

Hours later, Vinicius posted a message on his social media profiles denouncing that incident and also congratulating the Andalusian team for their quick action. However, the Brazilian also indicated that he has access to a video of another racist act.

Congratulations to Sevilla for their quick action and punishment in another sad episode for Spanish football. Unfortunately, I have access to a video of another racist incident in Saturday's match, this time done by a girl. It's a shame that there is no one to educate her. I invest a lot in education in Brazil to form citizens with different attitudes, you can read in the post published through Instagram.

The face of today's racist is stamped on the websites as many other times. I hope that Spanish authorities do their part and change the legislation for once. These people also need to be criminally punished. It would be a great first step to prepare for the 2030 World Cup. I am here to help. Sorry for seeming repetitive, but it's episode number 10. And counting..., the post added.


What is Real Madrid's next match?

After the match, Real Madrid will face SC Braga in Matchday 3 of Group C of the UEFA Champions League. This match is scheduled to be played on Tuesday, October 24th, starting at 2:00 pm (Peru and Colombia time).

At the moment, the team led by Carlo Ancelotti is in first place in their Champions League group, with 6 points in two matches played. It is worth noting that the other two teams in the group are Napoli from Italy and Union Berlin from Germany.
