- Vinicius is again the target of racism
- Pogba expressed his support on social media
- Criticism of institutions that do not take firm action
WHAT HAPPENED? Support for Vinicius Junior, who is again the target of racism in Spanish football, continues to roll in. This time it was Juventus striker Paul Pogba’s turn to express his opinion on the actions of a handful of fans who were considered to have crossed the line. Pogba stated that incidents like this would continue to recur if the competent institutions did not take firm action in protecting players.
WHAT IS SAYING? This support was conveyed by Pogba through an account Instagram personally who also pinned Vinicius’s photo. “Who protects us?” Pogba wrote. “This is not the first, and also will not be the last. But we mustn’t let that pass again. I think we can all agree today nothing has changed since then.”
BIG PICTURE: Vinicius received the first red card of his career towards the end of the match against Valencia after raising his hand in Hugo Duro’s face shortly after getting into an altercation with some Valencia fans who acted racist. “Bananas, animal noises, chants against us? It’s a mental illness,” said Pogba. “If I’ve learned one thing this year, it’s that when someone has a black heart, nothing can change that.”

WHAT IS NEXT? Pogba feels pessimistic that this chronic problem will not end soon, given that there is no intention from the institutions involved to take action. “I think we agree, neither advertising nor slogans will change these people. If institutions don’t want to find real solutions, let’s try to do it ourselves, for ourselves. Full support bro,” said Pogba.
