REAL MADRID forward Vinicius Jr has praised Sevilla for removing a fan that allegedly displayed "xenophobic and racist behaviour" on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old was among a group of Real Madrid players that endured abuse from rival fans during the LaLiga match.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Security at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium took action by removing a fan.<\/p>\n
An official statement from Sevilla, which was issued after the match, read: "Sevilla FC condemns all racist and xenophobic behaviour and will work closely with the authorities to ensure that action is taken accordingly. This behaviour does not belong at Sevilla FC.<\/p>\n
"The individual will also be subject to the club's vigorous internal disciplinary protocols and have their membership revoked."<\/p>\n
Despite the club's efforts to prevent fans abusing the Real Madrid players, a video – which emerged on social media hours after the match – appeared to show a child making discriminatory gestures towards Vinicius.<\/p>\n
