The former head coach of Real, Vanderlei Luxemburgo, criticized the team midfielder Vinícius Júnior for his rude behavior on the field.
„I think he provokes a lot, and he shouldn’t be doing that. It has nothing to do with racism.
I remember an episode when in a match against Bayern, the opponent politely returned the ball to him for a throw-in, and Vinícius threw it to the ground. Kimmich picked it up and returned it to the Brazilian again, but he threw it to the ground once more. In Real, there is Modrić, to whom Kimmich passed the ball, and he threw it in.
Fouls are committed on Vinícius, and then he gets up and hits the player. Imagine how many times Pelé was fouled, or Zico. He is irritated by tackles, as if it is persecution for being black,” quotes Luxemburgo beIN SPORTS USA.
