Sevilla Player Lucas Ocampos Touched Inappropriately by Rayo Vallecano Fan

Ocampos went on to complete the full 90 minutes as Sevilla won 2-1 to move three points clear of the relegation zone.

After the match, Ocampos told DAZN: "I kept my calm because I have two daughters. I hope this doesn't happen to them in the future."

He added that he wants La Liga to treat the incident "as seriously as it takes racism".

A club statement from Sevilla later read: "We would like to place on record our disgust at the incident.

"Lucas Ocampos was subjected to an obscene and completely inappropriate act by a home fan.

"We hope that the appropriate measures outlined in the regulations will be taken to prevent such behavior from happening again on a football field, and we have expressed this to La Liga directly."

A statement by the home team read: "This isolated action is solely the individual responsibility of the fan who carried it out.

"Rayo Vallecano is currently working to identify the fan so that, if he is a season-ticket holder of the club, the appropriate disciplinary measures can be taken in accordance with the internal regulations."
