Brazilian footballers intend to implement a law at the national level to protect them from manifestations of racism.
Lent.az reports that the TyC Sports agency has released information about this.
The main idea of the project, called the "Vinicius Law", is that when a complaint related to racism arises, the referees immediately stop the game. If the fact is proven, the offending team is given a technical defeat.
In addition, the document provides for mandatory training courses for those working in the field of football, educational campaigns, and special protocols for identifying offenders.
This measure is related to the incident that occurred in the first leg of the Champions League play-off stage between Real Madrid and Benfica. At that time, the winger of the "royal club" Vinicius Junior accused the Portuguese club's midfielder Gianluca Prestianni of calling him a monkey.
