Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has decided to support his Brazil teammate Vinicius Jr on Twitter to show his disagreement towards the racist insults he received at the Mestalla stadium.
"I feel disappointed and very sad to see, ashamed, how episodes of racism with my teammate Vinicius Junior are repeated," he began.
"We cannot continue to tolerate this problem that transcends sport, affects all of society and goes unpunished. Public condemnation is not enough, punishment is needed.
"La Liga must urgently take exemplary measures, because these repeated incidents of racism tarnish the image not only of Spanish football, but also of the whole of world football. And the feeling must be unanimous: zero tolerance."
