The Brazilian once again was the subject of racist chants from the fans at the Mestalla Stadium during Real Madrid’s La Liga clash on Sunday, May 21.

According to Sportskeeda, Vinicius responded harshly to Tebas’ tweet about his incident and demanded that the La Liga president take action against those guilty of racism.

"Once again, instead of criticising racists, the president of LaLiga appears on social media to attack me. As much as you talk and pretend not to read, the image of your championship is shaken. See the responses to your posts and have a surprise. Omitting yourself only makes you equal to racists. I'm not your friend to talk about racism. I want actions and punishments. Hashtag doesn't move me."
