The Competition Committee has decided to act quickly and forcefully against the racist insults against Vinicius from the Mestalla stands and punish Valencia for the serious events that occurred in their stadium. The sanctioning body imposes the partial closure of the Valencian Coliseum, specifically the Mario Alberto Kempes animation stands, the epicenter of the xenophobic incidents against the Brazilian Real Madrid player.
In the resolution, which also imposes a fine of 45,000 euros on Valencia, the largest ever issued by the organization for xenophobic incidents, the minutes drawn up by the match referee, Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea, have special weight. “In minute 73, a spectator from the south stands Mario Kempes addressed Real Madrid player No. 20, Don Vinicius José de Oliveira Do Nascimento, yelling at him: »Monkey, Monkey«, for which reason the racism protocol was activated,” says the Basque collegiate in his writing.
The seriousness of the events and the repercussion that they have had not only in Spain but throughout the world, even damaging the image of the League at an international level, have caused the Competition Committee, made up of three members, appointed by LaLiga, the Spanish Football Federation (FEF) and the Higher Sports Council (CSD), have made a decision quickly, without waiting, as initially planned, for their meeting this Wednesday.
