MUNICH: Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany delivered a scathing critique of Jose Mourinho’s handling of racism allegations involving Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr, calling the Benfica coach’s comments a “huge mistake” in leadership. TV footage showed Benfica’s Gianluca Prestianni covering his mouth with his shirt — a common move by players or coaches to prevent anyone reading their lips — while making a comment that Vinicius and nearby teammates interpreted as a racial slur.

Trent Alexander-Arnold calls the alleged racist abuse of team-mate Vinicius Junior a "disgrace to football", while opposition manager Jose Mourinho is criticised for his comments.

Former Real boss Jose Mourinho criticised for his response to alleged racism by his Benfica player towards Vinicius.
