In the 1992–93 La Liga season, the lateRayo Vallecano goalkeeperWilfred Agbonavbare was target of racist abuse fromReal Madrid fans, such as chants asNegro, cabrón, recoge el algodón! ("Nigger, motherfucker, go topick some cotton!")[2] and a middle-aged man from Madrid saying on live TV that "that fucking nigger from Rayo" and the refereeJuan Andújar Oliver were to blame for Real Madrid's defeat, much to the amusement of the teenage fans who shouted "Ku Klux Klan",.[3] In the same live TV report, a 13-year old Real Madrid fan took furiously the microphone and spat, making a verbal threat to the Nigerian goalkeeper saying "Sunday we'll go to beat to death the nigger, that son of a bitch, in Vallecas".[4] When asked about the abuse suffered, Wilfred stated "That's normal, I am dark-skinned and having made many saves, I expected people to shout at me. But i am a footballer and this is nothing, i am very focused on [playing] my match".[5][6] The Bukaneros, a far-left ultras group from Rayo Vallecano, dedicated to Wilfred a graffiti with the dedication "For your defense of the Sash against racism, we will not forget you".[5]
