Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti has hit out at La Liga officials, claiming their game against Valencia should have been suspended after Vinicius Jr was racially abused.

The Italian said that La Liga has a big problem and has refused to face it squarely.

Valencia fans threw racial abuses at the Brazil international when both teams clashed in La Liga on Sunday night and the player was sent off in the final minutes of the match after a brawl between the players.

And legendary Ancelotti wondered why the match could go on despite abuses thrown at the Brazilian by fans of the opponents.

“They should have suspended the match then and there. It wasn’t one person. It was a whole stadium that went crazy,” he told reporters after Real Madrid suffered a 1-0 defeat.

“I had never before seen a whole stadium being racist. Maybe I’ve seen a few people being racist, but I had never seen that from a whole stadium.

“The atmosphere was racist. This was unacceptable. This league has a racism problem.”
