Real Madrid youngster Iker Bravo attacked by Rayo Majadahona fans

Real Madrid youngster Iker Bravo was attacked after a youth team game on Sunday.

Bravo, a former Barcelona player who plays for Real Madrid's Juvenil A, was attacked on Sunday after the match against Rayo Majadahona (2-4).

The centre forward was the victim of a headbutt which occurred when, once the match was over, he was leaving the locker room to the team bus.

El Relevo reports throughout the 90 minutes, Bravo was subject of insults from the stands. A group of young fans then waited for him at the exit of the La Oliva field and barracked him again with terms like "clown".

Bravo looked at them while he greeted an acquaintance and, at one point, one of the group approached the player and struck him with a blow that did not cause any serious injury.

Real staff then intervened to prevent the incident from escalating.
