Fans' reactions to Vinicius incident

Fans were livid on social media after seeing the incident and called Vinicius all kinds of names. Here are some of the reactions.

@bigtimini:

"Vini might be a good player with lots of potentials but he has a disgusting character for real."

@MagicalXavi:

"This guy is so arrogant."

@Ayobamii007:

"Later, he will claim that they racially abused him. One of the reasons people don’t support him is because of his actions, he’s always provoking either the fans or the players."

@adeyinkaaojo:

"This guy is the first to tweet and raise alarm after matches when he's badly treated, but he has a very nasty character."

Ancelotti drags Vinicius

Sports Brief earlier reported on Carlo Ancelotti dragging Vinicius Junior off the field when he was being substituted.

The Brazilian was taking his time to get off and was booed loudly by Barcelona fans.

The 23-year-old has become probably the most hated player in Spanish football in the last few seasons.
