The Selecao wore black shirts in the 4-1 victory at Espanyol’s stadium on Saturday, to protest against racial discrimination.
VINICIUS JUNIOR COMPLAINED Sunday about an alleged racist act by stadium security aimed at one of his staff before the friendly between Brazil and Guinea in Barcelona.
“The treatment was sad … to make everything public, I ask those responsible: where is the security camera footage?” Footage broadcast by Brazilian channel SporTV shows heated exchanges between the player’s friends and staff at the stadium.The Brazilian football federation said they had taken action as soon as it became aware of the complaint and called on the police and match organisers to “give their full support and protection to yet another victim of racism, a crime that must be fought vehemently and relentlessly”.
The Brazilian Football Confederation was behind the gesture accompanied by the slogan of “Com racismo nao tem jogo” .
