Carlo Ancelotti angry with Valencia fans. The Valencia supporters were vilified by Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti for their behavior during the La Liga away match against Valencia on Sunday (May 21). Vinicius was the target of racist chanting from Valencia supporters.
In one instance, the Brazilian attacker and his colleagues even forced a break in play as they proceeded to confront the heckler. The same topic has now been addressed by Ancelotti, who spoke to Movistar football (h/t Madrid Zone): “The stadium insults a player for racism, not one individual who yells “m*nkey” at them.”
Vinicius has been the target of supporters throughout his time in Spain. He has also frequently been on the receiving end of racism.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid was shocked by a 1-0 loss at the Mestalla. The game’s lone goal was scored by Diego Lopez in the 33rd minute. Due to the defeat, Los Blancos dropped to third place. They are in second position, one point behind Atletico Madrid, with 71 points after 35 games.
What did Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, say about Vinicius?
Vinicius, who has assisted Real Madrid in several significant victories, is still only 22 years old. He was not only subjected to racist taunts at the Mestalla but he was also dismissed late in stoppage time.
Vinicius might suffer a great deal from having to deal with racism and ongoing hatred from fans. After the altercation at the Mestalla and his red card, Ancelotti was questioned about how the Brazilian was doing. According to the Italian (through Madrid Universal): “He still has a young age, and all he wants to do is play football. Now because someone in VAR fabricated some aggressive conduct that didn’t exist, the Bernabeu will be unable to watch him on Wednesday.”
“The Valencia player was holding him, and when he tried to get away, they gave him a red card. All of us are with him. Of course, he is depressed. Sad instead of angry.”
On May 24, Los Blancos will play at home in a La Liga match against Rayo Vallecano. If they want to take second place, they cannot afford any more mistakes.
