UEFA is concerned about the possible ongoing conflict between Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior and Benfica striker Gianluca Prestianni ahead of the Champions League playoff match.

In the first match, as the Madrid team won 1:0, the Brazilian made a comment to referee Francois Letexier about the racist image from the side of the Argentinean. Following the words of Vinicius, the supernik called him “mavpoy”, covering his mouth with a T-shirt. The president blocked the accusations for a long time, declaring that he was not victorious against racist accusations. After the incident, UEFA was subject to disciplinary action.

According to the information of the Spanish snakes, the European Football Union is afraid that before the start of the re-play of football, they may be forced to resort to a traditional hand grip, which could negatively affect the image of the tournament.

The option of disqualifying Prestianni before the match is considered, but is considered unlikely due to the triviality of disciplinary procedures. The Argentinean has already given his version of the story between the investigations.

It is clear that the official position will be taken into account regarding the UEFA situation in the coming days.
