It is so absurd, no real accountability ever in these situations. Nothing will change because the league does not care unless it effects them financially. How a club can employ black players but not take accountability for their racist fans is beyond me. I can only imagine how helpless a player must feel when chants of “mono” and other racist epithets are thrown your way. In Spain they make excuses saying Vinicius is “provocative” and riles up the fans, the amount of excuses for racism is astounding. That article is so wild to read too. I thought maybe after the Atletico game there would be a little bit of a change but the same exact scenario has unfolded again and unfortunately will continue to happen. Watching the videos of the chants was like looking at a scene from the 1950’s.
