Marega/Porto Racism Incident

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Another racist incident, what's more troubling is he team-mates and manager's refusal to just support him and let him walk off the pitch, just shameful behaviour.

Then his manager responds by putting another black player on the pitch in his place.

Just bewildering. The kind of thing UEFA should actually be punishing clubs for...

If his team mates had any balls they’d have gone off with him.
Nobody should have to put up with that nonsense .
As soon as the ref is aware take the teams off the pitch until the culprits are identified and dealt with.

Uefa will never resolve this stuff 'cos they don't have it as a priority. They see the first ten priorities of their stewardship of the European game as £, $, or € - and as many as they can get and as quickly as possible!

Depressing that this is still happening with relative frequency.

The worst thing is his team mates dragging him trying to keep him on and his manager.

Football’s ‘win at all costs’, even if it means throwing your morals and dignity in the bin, is why I now hate the sport.

UEFA’s first priority has changed in the last week.

Since Friday, screwing Manchester City has become by far and away their biggest concern.

Since 2008, screwing Manchester City has become by far and away their biggest concern.

Corrected for you.

It's ok, €12k fine and under the rug.

10 bob fine and asked can they try and not do it again. UEFA - priorities always in the right place

Disgusting and he had played for the club that was dishing out the abuse. Sadly racism will never fully be eradicated as it deeply rooted not in just football.
