Italy is suffering from an ‘epidemic’ of racism inside soccer stadiums, FARE chief says Globe_Sports
Italy is suffering from an “epidemic” of racism inside soccer stadiums fuelled by right-wing politics, according to the head of European football’s anti-discrimination watchdog FARE.
“Then you have a football association that doesn’t know how to respond, given the government’s position, and historically hasn’t responded very well.” There was no official comment on Wednesday from either club while Serie A’s disciplinary committee is likely to deal with the incidents on Friday. “It was unbelievable,” Ivorian Toure told reporters. “You can’t imagine how hurt I was when I saw those things happening.
Later on Wednesday, Bonucci posted a photograph of himself and Kean playing for Italy on Instagram with the caption: “Regardless of everything in any case.......no to racism.”
