Vincius Jr. of Real Madrid was victimised by racism in Spanish football; the league and authorities were criticised for their inaction
The Spanish Players' Union claims that Real Madrid player Vincius Jr. has endured many racial taunts while playing in La Liga (AFE). Despite inquiries, neither the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Spain's top football governing body, nor any regional prosecutors have imposed any penalties.
Unlike England, where the Premier League and English Football Association (FA) have the power to penalize teams or supporters for instances of racial abuse, La Liga, Spain's top football division, has no such power.
Instead, LaLiga is only permitted to report any instances of abuse to
the RFEF committees or local prosecutors, who handle them as legal cases before
applying any sporting sanctions.
Football leagues and authorities in Spain, according to
Piara Powar, executive director of the Fare Network, an organization created to
combat prejudice in European football, are "washing their hands" of
these instances. He continues by saying that Spain's "system is breaking
apart" due to how the sport of football and the legal system
handle incidences of racial abuse during sporting events.
La Liga has provided local authorities with information on
a total of 12 incidents of racist abuse against Black football players that
occurred between January 2020 and the present. Vinicius, the Real Madrid player,
was subjected to racist insults in eight of these incidents, although four of
them were never prosecuted. La Liga has raised worry over the regional
prosecutors' failure to identify the culprits, incidents that lasted for only a
little period of time, and their failure to go far enough to constitute a
criminal offense.
. It is clear that UEFA needs a centralized template to
help ensure that disciplinary laws are upheld and the procedures are
appropriate. In contrast to a recent example in England, when a municipal court
handed out a three-year ban to a supporter-only three months after they yelled
a racial epithet at Chelsea's Raheem Sterling, Powar observed that the
agonizingly lengthy procedure in Spain seemed complicated.
The archiving of the Vincius case at Camp Nou by local
authorities has been dubbed "inconceivable" by Esteban Ibarra, the
head of the Movement Against Intolerance, an organization in Spain that seeks
to chronicle instances of racial abuse in sports and spread awareness about
prejudice.
Despite this, Vinicius, 22, insists that he keep
dancing and enjoying his accomplishments while speaking out against bigotry. To
confront the widespread problem of racism in Spain, the Association of Spanish
Footballers (AFE) and the Movement Against Intolerance have teamed together.
The two groups met last month to develop a strategy to stop racial abuse in
football, which included collaborative marketing and training to increase
awareness of the problem.
They also want to cooperate in prosecuting instances
involving racist events and reporting incidents to the prosecutor for hate
crimes. Piara Powar, the executive director of Football Against Racism in
Europe, asserts that the procedure in Spain is convoluted and that justice for
those who have been subjected to racial abuse may take a long time or never
come. The AFE and the Campaign Against Intolerance are dedicated to combating
racism in football and society at large despite this.
