Had his home town statue covered in bin bags, and plenty of newspaper articles denouncing him too. It's what happens long term really though. Uefa still listing him in their records, and have an article on him as part of their champions league 100 club that's still accessible. I'm not sure what i expect to happen with his legacy, but do we really want people in 50 years time remembering him as a highly decorated exceptional footballer and completely not knowing he was a rapist? Google "Kobe Bryant' legacy", and you won't find one article about the rape he committed. Is that the right thing for society to do? Focus on the good things you can learn from someone, rather than knowing about any bad they did despite that? To try and hide the fact that there was a lack of consequences that you can face for such actions if you're rich and famous? Although in Alves's case, there were (unusually) consequences.
