In the Spanish championship match between "Real Madrid" and "Real Oviedo", a fan of the home team made racist insults towards Kylian Mbappe. Immediately after the Frenchman's first goal in the 37th minute of the match, the fan made monkey gestures and shouted insults.
According to Idman.biz, citing Marca, the identity of the person was revealed from videos and television footage circulating on social networks. The Spanish National Police confirmed his arrest and charged him with a hate crime. The person appeared before the Investigating Court No. 1 of the city of Oviedo.
According to the law, he faces up to 3 years in prison, a fine of 60-650 thousand euros, as well as a ban on entering stadiums. La Liga has declared a zero-tolerance policy, but the latest incident has raised questions again about how effective the fight against racism is in Spanish football.
