Real Madrid C. F. announces that today it has submitted all available evidence to UEFA regarding the incidents that occurred last Tuesday, February 17, during the Champions League match our team played in Lisbon against SL Benfica.

Our club has actively collaborated with the investigation opened by UEFA following the unacceptable episodes of racism experienced during that match.
