Vinicius Junior, the Real Madrid player, mocked Fermin Lopez, the Barcelona player, because of the way he celebrated his goal against Andriy Lunin in El Clásico, which ended with the Royal Club winning 3-2 and getting close to clinching the La Liga title.
Lopez, 18, went to Real Madrid’s stands at the Santiago Bernabeu and celebrated in a way that some said was similar to Lionel Messi’s famous celebration, and others said it was similar to Jude Bellingham’s celebration.
After the match, one of the fans posted a photo of Fermin celebrating and another of Bellingham, writing, “He thinks it’s Bellingham,” with sarcastic emojis.
The surprise was that Vinicius responded to this tweet with a laughing and sarcastic emoji, indicating his agreement with what was written.
As a result, the Brazilian star was subjected to a fierce attack from Barcelona fans, to the point that some wrote that he deserved the racist chants he received in Spanish stadiums over the last two seasons.
Vinicius had scored one goal and made another in El Clásico, and he is the player with the most goalscoring contributions against Barcelona since 2019.
