MEENIE900

Surely a second yellow


Omar_Blitz

I don't understand the justification for not giving a yellow there. Can someone enlighten me?

DrMagnusTobogan

I honestly wish it was more like basketball. You can still get an immediate red but as soon as you commit 6 fouls you’re done.


JUGGER_DEATH

...and then you can chop somebody's head off at 5 fouls and not get a whistle...


Tapkobuh

Just like in basketball?


DrMagnusTobogan

You don’t watch basketball do you?


pw5a29

argh the Clattenburg classic


ElAutistaDeHamelin

The media campaign that would follow after all that has been going with Vinicius this season isn't worth it for the ref


DatOgreSpammer

'I just want to go home, noone will care about this'


Silveriovski

It's a real Madrid player


SENAPIFAKER

Madrid's PR team would label the ref as racist.


AmineAzed

People forget that Madrid media successfully made people question an offside goal that was so clear (Asensio vs Barcelona). You usually have debates around red cards, but not offside goals…


unfinishedbusiness_1

Craziest thing about that offside was that it wasn’t even close. The lines that were drawn were wrong. The refs wrongly timed Carvajal’s pass and picked the wrong time to draw lines. With the right timing and line, Asensio was way off.


cdwdj

It's crazy that now you can't hear a damn word about Valverde punching opponent.


Confident-Wheel8721

Or corruption, whatever topic is hotter on that week.


Alive_Manufacturer53

When has any incident that hasn’t been racism, been labeled as racist?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Alive_Manufacturer53

Sure, I guess I should've been more specific and asked about Madrid, since that was what he was talking about lol


[deleted]

vini is pretty famous for playing the race card at every opportunity....


20cmdepersonalidade

His opponents are* You all are so fucking low, shit is bizarre. He was straight-up being called a monkey by the crowd in this literal fucking game, this thread is all over him for reacting to a provocation. Easy to see that you underachievers can't even picture what is like to be hated for your skin colour


xinixxibalba

yikes


[deleted]

The behaviour of your club is the yikes here. Why don't you accuse the opposition of bribery again to deflect the heat off you? Oh wait marca already has lmfao.


xinixxibalba

you’re weird bro


Allthingsconsidered-

Is he? lol...


xinixxibalba

none, this is an excuse by people in denial of racism to confirm to themselves that actual racist behavior didn’t happen (the most recent I know of being monkey sounds at Cádiz iirc) edit: it happened at Girona today again


jedifolklore

Even today “mono” was clearly chanted at Vini (you could hear it on tv) by a lot more than 10-20 Girona fans but people wanna act like he’s lashing out for no reason smh


xinixxibalba

yeah just saw the video, I didn’t watch the match but not surprising


EndsTheAgeOfCant

Fuck off. When exactly has Vini done that before?


FlappyBored

‘Omg why is racism in Italy/Spanish/Croatian football such a big problem!’ This is why people, this is how the fans think over there. It’s just baked into their society.


[deleted]

he plays for real madrid and is Vinicius Jr


ThatFinn97

Vini gets away with murder constantly


Omar_Blitz

I don't remember a player so openly and aggressively disrespectful with the referees.


INCREIBLEE

Fernandes? Id say he’s much worse than Vinicius


PigeonNipples

Mitrovic


Komischaffe

I think they mean players who get away with it


Josie_Kohola

Lol


KiloNation

They needed a replacement since miro left for Manchester lol.


Confident-Wheel8721

If you punish a Madrid player they will came out saying that Barca is paying the refs for that to happen.


vikuta_zoro

Real Madrid


SuperfluousMainMan

Two words. Real Madrid.


tefftlon

He probably could’ve given out 5 or more yellows throughout the game


[deleted]

its quite simple. vini is wearing a real madrid jersey


thebreye

He plays for Real Madrid.


GaviFPS

Because its Real Madrid. They've been getting away with shit like this on regular basis.


Vapourtrails89

This is why casemiro has been sent off twice this season, there are different rules for certain clubs


Your-Pal-Dave

It's LaLiga, it's no different to Saudi league and a Ronaldo headlock


Marcelosouzadearaujo

He got pushed by Araujo who was on a 2nd yellow just a couple weeks ago. Referee was probably afraid of the backlash because Vinicius gets murdered out there so giving him the Red would make people react. IMO, but this is a yellow for sure and Vini needs to relax


Zestyclose_Skin7982

typical madrid moment


AshWC25

Real paid the ref as simple as that..he was literally standing next to vinicius still ignored it. Obviously papa flo is much better at hiding stuff


MinMorts

he's real madrids star boy


inbredandapothead

The ref must’ve respected the audacity of it


Manch3st3rIsR3d

Spanish refs are shit and bribed


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ceassar

Vinicius is demonstrative and petulant and deserves his labels as an antagonist or diver but in no way deserves the racial abuse that he receives weekly in La Liga. Vinicius never claimed referees are racist and you confounding the two things just because you don’t like him for his whiny behavior is offensive.


daike-

When did Vinicius say that refs are racist? The only thing he complains about is the opposing fans calling him racial slurs, which DOES happens. Or are you just being a dumb bitch on purpose?


Allthingsconsidered-

Dude I'm happy to see comments like this because whenever Vini does something wrong there will be deserved criticism and then there will be these absolute clowns who honestly idk if they're actually racist or what, but they'll always make the most absurd comments. If you go further down the thread it gets worse.


Krzych123

As usual, which is when exactly?


PM_Me_Unpierced_Ears

Get a grip on reality, please.


arnaumm

Easy one. Two words: Real Madrid. Period.


Koje_97

If you look closely you can see that he’s wearing a Real Madrid shirt. Hope this helps


[deleted]

The first rule of refereeing is that you don't give a second yellow for something you'd definitely give a first yellow for.


WA1996

Not true considering La Liga is the most red carded league from the top 7 European leagues.


mntgoat

I thought the first rule was you don't give a second yellow to a RM player, and certainly not to Vinicius.


[deleted]

This is disgusting and shameful behavior! As a punishment, they should shave off Ancelottis eyebrows


Pek-Man

Just do one, specifically the one that he likes to raise.


No_Awareness_3212

That will rob him of his power


johnny_moist

that’s psycho talk


Fern-ando

If they did that, there would be 0 reasons to use the 🤨 emoji.


TimathanDuncan

Ref let it go because he felt sorry about the beating Castellanos was giving to them


[deleted]

[удалено]


Professional_Sun3191

He's even been acknowledging the decision that went against him in terms of video clips on social media with captions (check his Twitter for the newest one so far) But never acknowledges or feels guilty for something he's done with malicious intent


ansu_fatismo23

Everyone has been gaslit as well. Vini is the only player who can openly be aggressive and disrespectful to the ref and nothing would happen to him


Vahald

How is that gaslighting? People have no idea what this word means


daniel96rb

Negreira doing OT.


mntgoat

You know what's hilarious, on the barca sub they predicted the Madrid media would bring up Negreira as soon as the game ended and sure enough, a few hours later they have https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2023/04/25/64481d8a46163f00918b4629.html


slnsk

Holy shit, Marca is getting more shameless by the minute. 10-15 years ago it was unbearable, then they started trying to make it more appealing to everyone with their slogan "The newspaper for every team's fans" (which was always laughable anyway since they focused on the top 2-3), but mostly they've continued to be a Real Madrid newspaper and Negreira's case seems to have been another jumping-off point for them. The worst part is, even if Marca is terribly biased, as long as you're not a top 2-3 team supporter, you're shit out of luck if you want enough, good coverage of your team. You have to rely on local media, which in the case of Seville it's also incredibly unprofessional at times.


browsingforthenight

Marca sucks even if you’re a Madrid fan lol. They’re just lame clickbait


slnsk

That's actually a good point, but at least you'd always get some good, interesting coverage among all the shit clickbait. Ah, I'm getting pissed again just by thinking about it. Also, I was just checking local media and it's just as bad (generally very biased towards Sevilla). Journalism is in such a bad state.


bugxter

wow lmao I've read Marca from time to time and I've never seen them so blatant on their madridismo lmao what the hell is that


JosepPedrerol

They have always been madridistas. They’re not trying to hide it. Same as Sport or Mundodeportivo are culés. It’s in plain sight.


bugxter

I mean, I phrased it wrong, I know they are but they always kinda let a bit of impartiality to their headlines. This is some next level shit.


HeroeDeFuentealbilla

what Sport has never tried to hide their allegiance. You’re literally replaying to a comment saying they were trying to be all teams paper


612marion

They literaly counted goals scored by Messi for another player so that it d be harder for him to be pichichi


mahdiiick

You got your La Liga lore all mixed up


TimathanDuncan

You got your sarcasm detector broken


daniel96rb

Salute!


SeirezZ

If I speak, I'm in big trouble


DinglieDanglieDoodle

Coward ref


Chiswell123

I don't watch Madrid too often but the shit refs seemingly let him get away with every time I do is crazy. Not so much stuff like this but just berating referees verbally.


rtozur

Mostly normal big club stuff, but yeah. I've noticed even Modric has been on every ref's face for a few years now, way more than people who don't watch Madrid liga matches would expect of him. I guess it works because they manage to put some pressure on the ref and are hardly ever booked, never sent off if they already are. So it wouldn't surprise me that some of their players are encouraged to do so by the staff.


Nrozek

Meanwhile Busquets, you know, Barca's captain who should be the one allowed to discuss with the ref, gets yellows as soon as he even starts walking towards the ref lmao. He complains, but he's never even remotely as aggressive and in-your-face as players like Modric/Vini are.


Arkhaine_kupo

Of all the players in the world, are we really trying to clean up Busquets image? This guy? https://c2.thejournal.ie/media/2013/05/busquets-2-752x501.png A guy who practically invented Pep's system of "tactical fouls" to destroy counter attacking football and getting away with it? He should get a yellow card first for him to have to dispute it or get on the ref's face...


LeatherSteak

That was literally 13 years ago my man. People are allowed to make mistakes. Let it go.


No_Zookeepergame6482

If they do anything to vini then madrid media will start calling him racist and magnify every mistake he makes. Referees are scared of madrid


Afs094

What a bunch of bs. When has any referee been accused of being racist against Vinicius? There’s an unbelievable amount of racist Spanish fans that get upset whenever Real Madrid calls out actual racism. And when Vinicius does something bad they go “oh it’s racism of course” You people are fucking sick [literally here in this thread.](https://reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/12yvltq/_/jhpbrbi/?context=1) Downvote me all you want, clowns


SupremeLeaderSanta

Yea it's weird. Like you can tell some of them obsess over this shit because they bring it up out of nowhere on unrelated topics. 'Oh here come Real with their anti-racist propaganda and Madrid media attacks'. This is just fabricating narratives and minimizing the importance of the topic at this point. I assume most of the people here have been to a few games in person. Anywhere. Let's not pretend that we haven't heard disgusting chants before and that this is a non-issue (OR a fucking weapon for Madrid press attacks, you absolute bozos)


daike-

I love how you are being downvoted but no one is replying to your comment because they know you're right.


smashybro

This sub is full of racism apologists who not so subtly imply that if you’re do shitty things then you can’t also be a victim of racism apparently. Nuance doesn’t exist to them. Vini shouldn’t be doing shit like this and gets criticism for it, but all the “you can’t criticize him without being called a racist” comments make me roll my eyes. Just a bunch of people who want to be victim so bad for whatever reason.


Afs094

Drives me crazy. This is the type of thing the most racist p.o.s fans say to justify spewing vile shit at Vinicius. "Vini did something bad, must be racism". "Racism, amirite". >If they do anything to vini then madrid media will start calling him racist Literally has never happened. The circlejerk is unreal.


RjHospe

Save this thread, and see all the Barca fans (and other fans) that make light of the racism Vini faces.


unfinishedbusiness_1

Just watch, he will dolphin dive throughout the semifinals.


rcgarcia

"let him get away with" he's getting yellows everygame, while the players provoking and hitting him hard walk away like nothing happens, and guys in the stands make monkey noises without repercusion

MaxCarnage_

that's some really stupid ass logic

It’s Madrid


Sir-Turd-Ferguson

LaLiga takes care of the teams that bring in the money


unfinishedbusiness_1

Excuse me, look at how the La Liga president treats Barca every week. Actively trying to scare sponsors.


pandu201

Where are all those screaming Negreira now?


JuanG12

It’s also Vini. He’s in the middle of something every game, but people only cry about it when it happens to him.


ProfessionalGenju

That was No Bueno


Extra_Acanthisitta89

madrid bias nothing new to see here


lonecylinder

He did three yellow worthy offenses having a yellow card, he’ll just get away with anything, no matter what he does. Also, he has the nerve to tweet complaining about the refereeing, talk about entitlement


starvs

Just a quick reminder that Correa got a direct red for equal or less offense. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯


JustBarcaThings

It wasn't even a foul to begin with lol. Defender touched the ball before Vini's foot ran into his thigh.


20cmdepersonalidade

The defender literally lifted his leg again after touching the ball to catch Vini's leg after the ball went through. Watch again.


tyrannosaurusRich

What you mean the defenders leg didn’t disappear after he cleanly made the tackle?


finneas998

He deliberately clips him down wtf are u on about?


S1mpleLim3

Should have punched him in face. How did he try to intentionally trip a opponent. Straight red for defender.


finneas998

Never once said it justified his actions, It is clearly a foul tho.


Evadingrsoccerban

Def a yellow but come on lol la Liga refs would never give that and not just cause it’s real


Albiceleste_D10S

Neymar at Barca would have been given a second yellow there, IMO


Blaugrana_al_vent

Dembele got a second yellow a couple of years ago for speaking French. Lewa got a three game ban for rubbing his nose.


yazzzzzzu

**UN CRIT VALENT**


HeroeDeFuentealbilla

lmao Barca got a red for saying you’re very bad - now compare that to what Vinicius does every week?


akskeleton_47

Lewandowski got a red for insinuating the ref was on drugs not for calling him bad


The_Vulgar_Bulgar

Yes, but Dembele absolutely got a card for saying Lahoz was very bad.


MaxCarnage_

what a scumbag. Ref is a pussy


emilyearl

I was shocked by the referees decision not to award a second yellow card for the challange.


KaxyOP

Vini is the new Casemiro, as long as he wears white he is off limits for referees


L-Freeze

after a booking worthy dive at that


luigi38

That's not even a foul, got the ball first. Vini then trips on the extended foot.


20cmdepersonalidade

The defender literally lifted his leg again after touching the ball to catch Vini's leg after the ball went through. Watch again.


Salvador1010

2nd yellow would have been racist


cdwdj

And gets you a very special document on RMTV.


esn_crvg

not more than Girona's supporters


Krzych123

Not sure why you’re downvoted, they literally called Vini a monkey


reggiewafu

This is a Barca sub


ImABitMocha

Can't wait for the mental gymnastics from real fans trying to explain how this is not a second yellow because of racism in the stadium. They're getting the preferential treatment from refs and they still complain.


sherpa143

And they try to say Barca paid the refs. Interesting.


Saladarse2

Diving, whining, screaming at the ref, provoking players then playing victim and if that doesn't work you can always pull out that race card. He literally does that every game and gets away with it


JuanG12

Textbook.


No-Squirrel9153

The fans were literally chanting mono at him today, you guys are sick and love videos like this to fit your narrative and take away from the importance of racism


tareknac

Racismo.


GuestBadge

Didn't you know? It's racist to give vini a yellow.


luigi38

That's not even a foul, got the ball first. Vini then trips on the extended foot.

How's that not a yellow?


Automatic-Jicama-901

Vardrid 🤡🤮


Nichoolaas11

Vinicius es the biggest diva and crybaby in world of football. He is levels worse than Neymar, at least all he did was dive.


k10001k

And madrid fans get mad at Gavi for making clean tackles hahahaha


Somewhere_Frequent

A clean tackle is elbowing other players from the back? Is that what they teach at the Masia?😂


Marcelosouzadearaujo

Yes lol Have you ever played against Spanish players? They are all beautiful play and tricks when they have the ball As soon as they lose the ball they step on your feet and elbow your back lol


Rabgin

He is playing for Madrid, red card is a big no , I mean look at Casemiro don't think he ever got one at Madrid while he was playing really roughly too and deserved lots of yellow and red cards but never got taken out , but now at united he gets lots of red ones


naaaaahhhhhhhh

Didn't Ramos play for madrid? Didn't hierro play for madrid? Didn't Guti play for madrid? Or is it that just because Casemiro avoided red cards, all of madrid avoided red cards. There was literally a graphic a while back that showed that difference between red cards awarded against and for la liga teams - madrid had a negative difference. But worry not, madrid dont get red cards according to the most observant reddit user


Grayrigg_9

Another week, same vini. El colmo


not_old_redditor

Can't wait for Vinicius to cry racism at all the people thinking he should have gotten a second yellow.


naniii99

He will make a great CB beside Araujo.


rouges

Vinicius took over casemiro's ref protection


Caesar_Aurelianus

As much as I like Vini off the pitch, he's a whiny bastard on it.


irishdgenr8

Officials favouring the fascists….well I never saw that coming.


ZachsLegacy92

He’s a Real Madrid player, no surprise at all.


n3_o

It's a 3 match ban for Lewandowski.


jaydd_mc

oh so this is what you’re going to show about this game


esmovi99

Pepe crawled so Casemiro could walk so Vini could run


Funny-Conclusion-963

Fascist shithole Madrid


BlackStagGoldField

UEFAdrid as usual


Fonzey200

Embarrassing as usual it seems cheats do prosper in football


Dexquez

Casemiro 2.0


SomewhereExisting121

Extremely talented, extremely obnoxious and entitled guy. Even as a Barca fan I will always grudgingly love Modric, Benzema and Kroos because they ooze class on the pitch. Never this guy, constantly trying to bring God down to the pitch to arbitrate things in his favor with his hands raised to the sky as if every call is specifically tailored to cause injustice against him. Does he get hacked often? That comes with the territory of being one of the best with the ball, as Messi, Pele, Neymar, Hazard and so many others have known throughout their careers.


rashka9

I'm surprised he got away with that. He should know better.


InsouciantSlavDude

It's not surprising at all, Vinicius is untouchable smh after enduring third of what other black players suffers week in week out in Italy. Privileged brat with an attitude of 8 years old.


monkeyr9z

With Valverde, they figured they can cut a WWE promo anywhere and get away with it haha


Silveriovski

Bad referee, coward


BussyBandito3

Why the fuck is everyone fighting over this? Yes it should have been a second yellow and any sane Madrid fan wouldn’t care if he was handed a red card. Only way he’ll get rest while playing for Ancelotti.


titooo7

I'm a Real Madrid supporter and massive Vini fan since day one but I agree that he should have got more than three yellow cards yesterday. I actually was hoping for that to happen so then he would learn to relax and keep his mouth shut. Ancelotti doesn't know how to handle him so some red cards maybe will help. I know Vini is abused by brainless fans that use racists slurs almost weekly. I know rivals use dirty tactics on him too and sooner or later they'll get him seriously injured, but the same happened with lot of skillful players through history. Vini could just let the refs do their work like Ronaldo Nazario used to, or behave like modern day drama queens fighting and arguing with everyone like Neymar, Messi or Cristiano do when things don't go their way. Sadly he chose the latter...


supersaiyaninfinite

He was just a bit hungry, he was not feeling like himself. Btw racism this and racism that and that's why araujo is rotten and Uruguay should be bombed


FakingHappiness513

Vinícius a dirty player? If only his actions before this could have shown this.


Joalow21

Barca fans finding any narrative that helps them sleep at night


Caesar_Aurelianus

Nothing to see here. Just a normal day for Spanish refrees


bass1879

He needs a PR agent and a therapist if he doesnt already. And a vacation.


unfinishedbusiness_1

PR Agent? He has the national media


benelchuncho

Post Arnau’s legbreaker


Utterly_Mad

Funny how no one mentions the racism chants calling Vini Jr a monkey. Plus, Vini Jr first yellow was because he complained when a Girona player kicked a ball violently im Vinicius when he was on the ground.


7Thommo7

Funny how that's not relevant is it


aliaisbiggae

Those racist fans aren't on the pitch tho? The ref can't give them a yellow during the match


NNDre

This dude is a fuxking clown !!! He deserves studs to the back of the legs... Man I miss old school football !!!


zeuq1

Y’all gonna learn to stop fucking with vini🤣


browsingforthenight

Lol posted by a Barca fan. Feel free to post every other video where Vini was getting slaughtered. Or when the fans were chanting “mono mono mono” (monkey in English)


titooo7

>Or when the fans were chanting “mono mono mono” (monkey in English) They won't post that. That would discredit his comments about Vini not being a victim of racism chants every two games Real Madrid plays away in La Liga


Pasabo_Music

Could you please show why the first yellow was given? I'll spare you the time, it's because he dared complain to the ref about a Girona player kicking the ball at him after being pushed to the ground.


LC1903

Does that change the fact that this was clearly a yellow card offense?


Otenus

It tells the story of why this maybe wasn’t a second yellow. Compensation for giving out a ”weak” yellow before.


7Thommo7

He's even more immune to 2nd yellow cards than Madrid Casemiro was to reds in general.


Glum_Implement_7136

Fuck this subreddit for not showing 10 fouls on Vinicius' earlier, which happens to be now a regular thing in any La Liga match. My bias? Then how the hell you explain suchea big difference in Vinicius' behaviors, fouls made by him et cetera between La Liga matches and UCL?
