Everyone hates vini in Spain, there's always whistles, booing, insults and racist chants. Always.

That's crazy. Is it pure racism?

Partially. Partially it's the fact that Madrid as a club are hated for being powerful. And vini is the kind of player no defense wants to face. The kind of player who'll humiliate defenders and cause chaos. And once it started and crowds managed to get a reaction out of him, crowds across the country realised they can rile him up now. Also they don't like him for talking against Spain and their clubs and fanbases.

There's quite a few factors at play
