FIFA president Infantino sends message of support to Vinicius

FIFA president Gianni Infantino showed his solidarity with Real Madrid's Brazilian winger Vinicius Jr, who again suffered racist insults, this time at the Mestalla stadium during the match against Valencia.
"Full solidarity to Vinicius. There is no place for racism in football or in society and FIFA stands by all players who have found themselves in such a situation," Infantino started.
"Events during the match between Valencia and Real Madrid show that this needs to be the case. That is why the three-step process exists in FIFA competitions and it is recommended at all levels of football.
"Firstly, you stop the match, you announce it. Secondly, the players leave the pitch and the speaker announces that if the attacks continue, the match will be suspended. The match restarts, and then, thirdly, if the attacks continue, the match will stop and the three points will go to the opponent," he explains.
The Swiss added that the steps to stop racism need to be supported through education.
This message adds to the many that have appeared after the match, such as that of Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who condemned the racist insults towards Vinicius and called for "serious measures" to be taken against those responsible.
