Yamal speaks out on racism from Real Madrid fans – ‘It’s all they have’

Barcelona Lamine Yamal has said that racist abuse of fans of Real Madrid has no influence on him because they suffered in the Santiago Bernabeu in October. In anticipation of the match, Ansu Fati and Raphinha were racially abused, while despicable abuse was also thrown to Alejandro Bald, Raphinha and Lamine Yamal while celebrating a third goal in their 4-0 win over Los Blancos.

Racial abuse has become in the elevator in Spanish football in recent seasons, in which no one suffers more than Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior of Abuse for far too many occasions. In the meantime, Nico Williams, Inaki Williams and Maroan Sannadi have all had racial abuse during the past seasons while playing for Athletic Club.

Speaking in an in-depth interview with MD, the 17-year-old showed an impressive presence of spirit on the subject.

“When you win 0-3 or 0-4, they can tell you something, they can ultimately do nothing. They see you play, they see you beating them on their ground. They see how they can't get to the ball and it's all they still have. So, as Balde said, be called black or whatever … I am and it doesn't bother me. We are proud. And in the end, when they win, they don't shout anything against you. That's when they lose. And that's it. “

“It's clearly wrong. It is not necessary to defend it. There is no room for this in football. They have to leave the ground. But hey, the federation already knows, everyone has seen it and they have to take the necessary measures. “

The scourge of racial abuse has seen the action increase, with two prison sentences that are handed out to fans who have abused Vinicius in recent seasons. But often the abuse only results in fines, and some have wondered if it is worth increasing the measures, because the deterrence is clearly not yet strong enough.
