Last Saturday,
Real Madrid could not do better than a draw (3-3)on the lawn of Rayo Vallecano, on the occasion of the 17th day of La Liga. Entering the game in the 63rd minute, Vinicius was booed by the local supporters, who notably called him a “beach ball”.
Just after the final whistle, as he returned to the locker room, the Brazilian international responded with a gesture of his fingers. A way of provoking them and telling them that their team was probably going to go down to the second division. The club located in the Vallecas district currently occupies thirteenth place in the championship.
Vinicius, a provocative label that is strengthening
The president of Rayo Vallecano considers this behavior deplorable.
“Attitudes like those of Vinicius are not appropriate. Ultimately, it says to a Rayo fan, ‘Go to the second division’, whereas for us, being in La Liga means surviving at all levels.” reacted Raúl Martín Presa, Sunday, at the microphone of the Cadena Cope.
The Spanish businessman points the finger at the responsibility of the one who ended up
second place for the 2024 Ballon d’Or.
“I believe that footballers, ultimately, must be professionals and that these attitudes towards the public in the stands should not happen because it can trigger other things,” warned the president of Rayo Vallecano.
