Another racist abuse incident

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47793676

This week in Italy
Young player abused
Scores
Celebrates

This time condemned for his celebrations with Allegri suggesting he is partly to blame for the crowds behaviour.

We were interested in Allegri
If he is not standing by his player 100% after being abused that way then glad we didnt get him

Did he only hold his arms aloft...or was there more to it


doesn't excuse anything mind....what is it with these places like Montenegro & Sardinia...have they got some sort of agenda or chip on their shoulder about something...ridiculous

You are confusing Allegri with Bonucci, the player

Cagliari manager said he heard mostly boos. Player apparently over celebrated and it was directed at the fans. Bonucci said he should have celebrated with his teammates instead.

He didn't over celebrate. He just stood there. Obviously there had been abuse before he scored, as he looked angry.

And lets not forget that he is only a 19 yr old boy too! it's ridiculous/disgusting that his own team mates couldn't even defend him.

Just read about the BBC report and it's really disappointing.

Firstly, would it have been better if Kean had just ignored the racist chants and celebrated with his own team? Maybe. But then would we be talking about it today? Would the BBC have covered the story? Probably not.

His actions highlighted the racism he was subjected to by the crowd. Same as Sterling did for England. If anything he should be applauded for confronting the issue and making it a talking point.

For another player to come out and say the blame was 50-50 for the abuse is staggering. Just utterly inappropriate from a senior professional. How dare he attempt to justify or legitimise racist abuse by suggesting the player was at fault!

I don't know why this is this even the focus of the discussion. Allegri and Bonucci focusing even a little attention on Kean deflects from the real crime here. They should genuinely be ashamed of themselves.

Not everywhere in Europe is like the UK. The twaats, Allegri and Bonucci, that blamed "both sides" obviously don't understand there is no moral equivalence between standing up to your abusers and making monkey chants.
