Case #1489 of why racism in football is absolutely unacceptable: Serbia vs. Italy
Tens of thousands were waiting for a brilliant match between two top European teams in Genoa. However, Serbian hooligans had to ruin it for everyone with their self-centered, intolerant, and racist acts before the match. Not only did they force their own side off the pitch due to safety concerns, but they also wasted the experience for their own fellow supporters who travelled and spent their own money to make the trip to Italy’s northwest city. Beyond that, a handful of “ultras” had to show their racist roots by burning an Albanian flag. This is a disgrace. Serbia will be punished because there have to be consequences for acts like this. It’s not fair because the vast majority of fans just wanted to see a good match and cheer on their side, but once again, sadly, hooliganism stole the headlines.
What is your reaction to this shameful display at the EURO 2012 qualifier?
