Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has been promoted to UEFA with a view to making tough moves after the racist scandal involving Vinicius Junior. The Brazilian winger became a target for racist images from the side of Benfica's senior Gianluca Prestianni before the first hour of the Champions League playoff match. Due to this incident, the group received a loss of 10 coins.

Ahead of the match at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, Arbeloa said that the hour for empty gestures has passed. The Vershkovykh coach noted that the current situation is relevant for testing for UEFA:.

" UEFA has a chance to earn more, but simply deprive them of all the beautiful banners before matches. And I suspect that the stench is rapidly disappearing with all possible force. Having such a diet is a direct obligation of UEFA,” said Arbeloa.

When there was a scandal in Lisbon, de Vinicius scored an incredible winning goal before recognizing the image, Arbeloa screamed that the 25-year-old team leader without losing concentration. The Brazilian has repeatedly faced discrimination in Spain, but has always demonstrated resilience.

“You feel even kinder and extremely motivated for such matches. Vin is a gravel who works as a sergeant, and that’s what any coach wants. Vinicius has a great surge at the crossroads, he is the right leader,” added the mentor.

Gianluca Prestianni has already completed his disqualification.. If it is revealed that the vikorists have used racist slurs (he covers his mouth with a T-shirt to avoid lip-reading), he is threatened with a ban of at least 10 matches.

The tension between the two clubs increased after the comments of Benfica head coach Jose Mourinho, who seemed to criticize Vinicius' goal celebration in the first match. Real Madrid protea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois reacted sharply to any attempt to link behavior on the field with racism:.

“I don’t think we can justify the outrageous racism of the holy day.”.

This idea was strongly echoed by Alvaro Arbeloa: “You scored a fantastic goal, and nothing that you scored on the field represents an act of racism. There is nothing in sight that could serve as vindication for anyone."

Real Madrid is already focusing exclusively on football. At the Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid will protect their minimal advantage (1:0) after the first match, trying to secure their ticket to the next stage of the Champions League playoffs.
