The National Police reported this Saturday the arrest of three people for racist insults to Rafinha and Lamine Yamal, Barcelona players, during the Classic that took place on October 29 at the Bernabéu. Although the information released does not specify the stadium in which it took place or the affected players in question, going back to the date of the match there is no room for doubt.
However, the person in charge of the Police’s social networks has decided to illustrate the news with a photo of two agents guarding the Metropolitanothe Atlético de Madrid stadium that has nothing to do with this matter, which only affects Real Madrid and Barcelona because they were the ones who were playing in said match.
CM of @policewe give you a hand. The people they have arrested are followers of another team from Madrid. The stadium in the photo you have published is ours and has nothing to do with this matter. I’m sure it’s just a mistake. pic.twitter.com/FAS9cn4y4z

The Colchoneros fans have quickly realized and have shared their indignation for avoiding at all times the name of the affected stadium and indirectly, by mistake or intentionally, pointing out their team, which has forced the person in charge of the red and white networks to give a wake-up call to your professional colleague in the Police.
With a respectful message citing the police force, the club explains that “the people they have arrested are followers of another Madrid team”, avoiding making allusions to the rival club. «The stadium in the photo you have published is ours and has nothing to do with this matter. Surely it is a mistake,” he concluded.

To avoid controversy, the official Police account has decided to delete the post in which it reported the event and share the news in another message accompanied by a photo, although on this occasion, instead of putting one of the Bernabéu, it has decided not to put no stadium, just an archive image of the Police themselves.
