It seems that racist insults are serious if they happen at the Metropolitano or at Valencia's ground, but not so much if they happen at the Bernabéu

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Lamine Yamal, Ansu Fati and Raphinha were victims of a regrettable and embarrassing incident at the Clásico on October 26. The FC Barcelona players were subjected to racist insults by a section of Real Madrid fans.

Gonzalo Miró put things in their place during the live broadcast of the COPE radio program EL PARTIDAZO. The contributor dared to "denounce" the different yardstick used by most Spanish media when dealing with news, depending on whether the topic affects, benefits or harms Real Madrid.

Juanma Castaño, director of the program, begins the discussion by addressing the topic of insults to Barcelona players at the Bernabéu but... he quickly tries to air it and shift the focus of attention to Paris, to the Ballon d'Or. Immediately afterwards, Gonzalo interrupts and intervenes, appealing directly to Juanma Castaño:

"Before the Ballon d'Or... have you considered the racist insults at the Bernabéu to be over with against Barcelona players...?

Not a word of the insults to Lamine Yamal in the referee's report

It must be acknowledged that initially LaLiga, the CSD, Vinicius Jr. and Real Madrid were up to the task, denouncing and condemning the racist insults of some fans towards Barça players at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium.

However, in the images you can see how Lamine Yamal, waiting to serve a corner kick, perfectly captures the insults directed towards him while the linesman, right next to him, seems not to hear them. In fact, in the referee's report no type of anomaly was recorded on the part of the public. How is it possible that the linesman did not hear anything?

Real Madrid and Vinicius condemn racist insults

Shortly after LaLiga took a stand and announced that it would send a formal complaint following these despicable events, Real Madrid and Vinicius Jr. came forward and spoke out against the videos and the detestable shouts at the Barça players.

Through his 'X' account, the Real Madrid '7' called for the sanction of those responsible. For its part, the Merengue entity also issued a note regretting the insults suffered and communicating that it had joined the investigations of LaLiga to find the authors of these shouts and adopt the corresponding disciplinary measures.

LaLiga and the CSD denounce insults at the Bernabéu

LaLiga, through a statement, reported that it would send a formal complaint, with evidence about the shouts and gestures towards the Barça winger and other players of the Blaugrana team, to the Hate Section of the Information Brigade of the National Police.

Similarly, the Higher Sports Council (CSD) also spoke out against the racist insults towards Lamine Yamal in the Clásico. The government body regretted what happened in a match of such importance where there is no place for "expressions of violence, racism, xenophobia, hatred or intolerance".
