Barcelona fans were left seething following a move involving Vinicius Junior and their standout player Lamine Yamal.
The incident unfolded amidst a highly charged atmosphere during Brazil's 3-3 draw with Spain in the "One Skin" international friendly on Tuesday night.
This match was specifically organised to spotlight the ongoing battle against racism, spurred by derogatory remarks aimed at Real Madrid's Vinícius.
As the game unfolded, Brazil found themselves trailing after Rodri's spot-kick in the 87th minute gave Spain the lead, per ESPN.

However, the South American giants managed to salvage a draw with a dramatic late equaliser. Lucas Paquetá's penalty conversion deep into stoppage time levelled the scores, sharing honours at the Santiago Bernabeu.
While the match showcased moments of excitement, the contentious incident involving Vinícius and Yamal left a bitter taste for Barcelona fans.
In a video circulating on social media, the Real Madrid winger can be seen committing a violent foul on Yamal. The level of aggression displayed was unwarranted, as the 23-year-old had the opportunity to make a simple tackle instead.
Barcelona fans reactions
However, Vinicius' actions appeared intentional, with Barcelona fans taking to social media to suggest he deliberately attempted to harm Yamal.
