La Liga Probe Vinicius Hate Chants

La Liga is investigating hate chants directed at Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior during his team's 2-1 defeat to Osasuna.

The Brazilian superstar was subjected to derogatory chants including 'Vinicius, die' as sections of the crowd whistled throughout the match. This follows another racial incident involving Vinicius just days after a match against SL Benfica.

Despite being targeted, Vinicius scored in the 73rd minute but couldn't prevent the defeat that leaves Real Madrid vulnerable at the top of the table.
