Barça and PSG veto Movistar for a racist comment by Mono Burgos

Footballers and coaches from Barça and PSG decided not to listen to Movistar, the television with rights to the Champions League, after the match due to an unfortunate racist comment by Mono Burgos in the preview of the match.

"If it doesn't go well, it ends up at a traffic light," the former Atlético goalkeeper and now television commentator joked with terrible taste in front of some images of Lamine Yamal juggling the ball.

After announcing the veto live from the flash interview, the television channel reporter who traveled to Paris asked for self-criticism in his connection with the set. Burgos, however, pointed out that it was a simple joke without more.

Movistar, however, was able to have an individual interview minutes later with Raphinha, who became the hero of the match after scoring two decisive goals for the Blaugrana victory.
