Barca fans suspect Real Madrid players of doping – does it really make sense? Answered

Some Barca fans want La Liga to 'investigate' Real Madrid's potential doping issues.

This has to do with the fact that many of the Whites' players sniff their jerseys during games.

💭 Thiago: "Look at this. Why does no one speak about it?"

💭 alhaqhaq1: "We call on FIFA or the European Union to do a doping test for Real Madrid players."

Now, why do they actually do it?

Real Madrid's coaching staff apparently recommends the players to put some Vicks VapoRub [mentholated ointment] on a jersey chest to provide relief for nasal congestion.

The creme is also used to relieve muscle aches and pain. Real Madrid's physios are sometimes seen rubbing it over the players' upper body.

By the way, you may spot Eduardo Camavinga taking a sniff here as well.

Still, some believe this proof is not a guarantee that Real Madrid players don't take doping.

💭 Futboleiro Blaugrana: "If I were doping, what would I use? A bottle with a label that said 'DOPING' and had a skull or something else painted on it? Can no one add powder to the Vicks VapoRub? Are they all sick in Madrid? 😂😂😂"
