"Racistas, fuera del fútbol" (Racists out of football), heard in stadiums and halls

The campaign "Racistas, fuera del fútbol" (Racists out of football),", launched on Tuesday by the RFEF, was echoed in the various matches played yesterday in both football and futsal. Stadiums and pavilions witnessed the premiere of the actions contemplated within this initiative, such as the posing of the teams behind a banner in which their main slogan could be read before each duel.

It should be recalled that the Consejo Superior de Deporte (CSD), the Real Federación Española de Fútbol (RFEF) and La Liga have joined forces against racism and last night, in the matches of the 36th matchday of the Primera División National Championship, these actions could be seen. A banner with the campaign slogan, a hashtag on social networks (JuntosContraElRacismo), the digital on-screen graphic on the TV signal, informative leaflets for fans, and players' armbands are some of the initiatives that the RFEF and La Liga implemented since this Tuesday and that will be maintained until the end of the season. 

"Racistas, fuera del fútbol" (Racists out of football)," and “Juntos contra el racismo” (Together against racism) aim to unite the strength of all - institutions, clubs, athletes and fans - with the goal of completely eradicating racism and those who stain our football with their acts of hatred.

Presence in futsal and beach football

The RFEF's commitment against racism covers all the competitions it organizes and that is why yesterday, actions also took place in futsal. Before the start of the playoff match for the title between Jaén Paraíso Interior FS and ElPozo Murcia Costa Cálida, the players posed next to the banner with the slogan "Racistas, fuera del fútbol" (Racists out of football),". Barça and Viña Albali Valdepeñas players also did the same at the Palau Blaugrana. 

The Royal Spanish Football Federation continues to coordinate actions in non-professional and grassroots football, an aspect in which the Territorial Federations will play an important role in making everyone aware that racism has no place in sport or in society.
