Aymeric Laporte surprisingly reacts to 'I just want to play soccer' jibe at Vinicius Junior after unprovoked push from Real Madrid winger in Spain's thrilling 3-3 draw with Brazil

<p>Vinicius Junior was spotted walking over to Laporte and pushing him in the back <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/brazil-player-ratings-spain-endrick-lamine-yamal/blt3cdb0aeb1f5fa82d" target="_blank">during Tuesday's exciting 3-3 international friendly draw</a> between Spain and Brazil. The incident came after the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-real-madrid-vinicius-jr-breaks-down-tears-racial-abuse-brazil-spain/blt92eae6de663576e9" target="_blank">Real Madrid star broke down in tears</a> at a press conference before the match when quizzed about the racial abuse he has endured. “I just want to play football," Vinicius also told reporters as he prepared for the game at the Santiago Bernabeu.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Those comments were used to mock Vinicius after the game. A post on X showed a video of the incident along with the message: "I just want to play football" and a series of emojis. Spain defender Laporte surprisingly responded with the comment: "Maybe he wanted to dance".</p><p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="es" dir="ltr">Quizá quería bailar..? 🕺🏻🤷🏻‍♂️😂 <a href="https://t.co/2zSbkjOpNi">https://t.co/2zSbkjOpNi</a></p>— Aymeric Laporte (@Laporte) <a href="https://twitter.com/Laporte/status/1772765400641458226?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 26, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT LAPORTE SAID

<p>Vinicius captained Brazil against Spain in a game which was organised in response to the racism experienced by the winger this season. The Brazil players posed in tops bearing the slogan "One skin, one identity" before the match, which ended in a draw thanks to a 97th minute equaliser from Lucas Paqueta. Vinicius was given a standing ovation when he left the pitch in the 70th minute.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="pt" dir="ltr">VESTIMENTA ESPECIAL! ✊🏾🇧🇷<br><br>Na hora do hino nacional, a Seleção Brasileira vestirá um casaco da campanha "Uma Só Pele, Uma Só Identidade". O slogan da iniciativa estará escrito em português, inglês e espanhol na parte de trás do casaco para atingir fãs de futebol de todo o mundo.… <a href="https://t.co/WkczKyW9gG">pic.twitter.com/WkczKyW9gG</a></p>— CBF Futebol (@CBF_Futebol) <a href="https://twitter.com/CBF_Futebol/status/1772379278329442444?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 25, 2024</a></blockquote>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Vinicius has also admitted he's felt "less and less like playing" due to the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/vinicius-junior-fight-against-racism/bltadb581cbaa456a5c" target="_blank">racism he has experienced</a>. However, the Brazilian has vowed to continue and will hope to add more silverware to his collection this season. Real Madrid will return to action eight points clear at the top of La Liga and are set to face Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.</p><p></p>
