Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has provided an emphatic response to the alleged racist abuse suffered by Vinicius Jr, drawing on his own experiences of being victimised over the colour of his skin.
Real Madrid winger Vinicius had an altercation with Benfica’s Gianluca Prestianni after scoring the only goal of Tuesday’s Champions League knockout play-off first leg in Lisbon, rushing over to the referee to tell him he had been the subject of racist abuse.
