Real Madrid lost 2–3 to Albacete in the Round of 16 of the Spanish Copa del Rey, and after the game the home fans behaved in an unsporting manner.
Details: According to AS journalist Rubén Martín, outside the stadium Albacete supporters were shouting that Vinícius is a monkey.
In addition, Albacete fans chanted at the Real Madrid players, urging them to come back in a week, as their team had finally managed to win.
The context is that Albacete had last won a match in the Segunda a month earlier, on December 8, 2025. Since then, they had gone four games without a victory. They currently sit 17th and are fighting for survival in Spain’s second division.
Reminder: Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick reacted very calmly to the appointment of Álvaro Arbeloa as head coach.
