Valencia given stand closure and small fine, ViniciusJr red card overturned after racist abuse
The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) have fined Valencia €45,000 euros (£39,000) and ordered a partial closure of their stadium for five games following racist abuse directed towards Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior. Vinicius has also had the red card he received in the match overturned, meaning he will be free to play for Real at home against Rayo Vallecano on Wednesday. Ad Vinicius said that “La Liga belongs to racists" after he suffered abuse from fans at the Mestalla on Sunday.
