Real Betis wing-back Ruibal on Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr: He was always talking to fans - of course they'll insult him back

Real Betis wing-back Aitor Ruibal says Vinicius Junior needs to learn to handle the jeers and kicks he receives.

Ruibal clashed with the Real Madrid star during Sunday's 0-0 draw.

And he later said: "In the end it is his game. He has to deal with getting kicked because he tries to dribble a lot. I think that in the end he enters a lot into the game with the fans.

"I saw him up close today, he's talking to the fans all the time and it's normal for them to insult you.

"I go to the fields of other teams and they are insulting for ninety minutes.

"In the end, people try to destabilise you."
