Racism in football

Besides Corona virus the most talked about theme during the last couple of months has been racism. And just as with Corona virus, the world of football is also influenced by this. In fact, racism (and xenophobia, nationalism, homophobia and misogyny) has been a problem in football for a long time; and as with the rest of society, a problem that has never been addressed for real by football authorities.
The German-Ghanaian football Kevin-Prince Boateng has written an excellent article about how he has experienced racism in football, and the immense hypocrisies: "Nothing has changed. Nothing. If anything, racism has gotten worse".
Think about that....
