Real Madrid File Complaint Against Referee for Ignoring Racist Chants towards Vinicius!
Real Madrid have officially filed a complaint against referee Juan Martinez Munuera for allegedly ignoring racist abuse directed at winger Vinicius Junior in last weekend's win against Osasuna.
The complaint accuses Munuera of intentionally leaving out the racist remarks against Vinicius in his match report following Madrid's 4-2 victory against Osasuna. During that game, Vinicius scored two goals but also received his fifth yellow card of the season, resulting in a suspension for Madrid's next match against Athletic Club after the March international break.
In an official statement by Real Madrid, the club wrote, "Our club has filed a complaint with the Disciplinary Committee of the Royal Spanish Football Federation against the match referee Juan Martínez Munuera, as a result of the negligent drafting of the referee's report. This referee voluntarily and deliberately omitted the insults and humiliating shouts repeatedly directed towards our player Vinicius Junior, despite being warned insistently by our players at the same time they were occurring."
