UEFA sanctions Real Madrid after Benfica incident
Real Madrid faced sanctions from UEFA following a racism incident involving Vinicius Jr during their match against Benfica, where a fan was later seen making a Nazi salute. UEFA has mandated a partial closure of the Santiago Bernabeu for a future match if similar behavior recurs and imposed a €15,000 fine. The closure affects 500 seats near the lower south stand. Real Madrid has publicly condemned such actions and is urged to prevent future incidents.
