PSV Eindhoven have vowed to take actions against fans who were filmed humiliating beggars in the centre of Madrid by throwing coins at them.
Ahead of PSV’s Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid, fans were caught on camera taunting the women and asking them to kneel down on knees in exchange for money.
The fans were also accused of engaging in anti-immigrant chants and burning banknotes. It created a backlash all over the world, after the news was published by Spanish newspaper El Pais.
Miguel Angel Renden, one of the witness present on that day, told the newspaper:
