  1. This is not about Jose Mourinho. You will never win at the character assignation attempt of man who gave opportunities to so many black players and gave paved the way for them. By trying to attack his character and making him the focus you take away from the issue at hand.

    Everything else that was said was on point. Good job.

    Personally speaking it time to ban Argentina from football. From this to the celebration on the bus, enough is enough.

    Vini is a legend.

  2. Kate is spot on. Its a matter of right and wrong, and there is no place for racism in the beautiful game. Im a lifelong Barça fan, and not very into some of the diva and petulant antics we've seen from guys like Vini and Mbappe. But no one deserves racist abuse. Point blank period. They are both great players who have recieved such abuse before, and while what was said may still be alleged…I'm inclined to believe them considering the context.
    So appreciate this panel addressing this situation head on 👏🏼

  3. Ronaldo Lima – a truly great human! I knew one of his childhood friends named Carlos Ferrari (Kaka) and we used to drop him off at his house in Madrid. One day, he said to his friend that we were nice for always dropping him off, but he was badly behaved for not inviting us to come in for a drink or snack! What a lovely guy…

  4. How can you have a conversation about racism, without talking about the players wearing Fly Emirates jerseys… The UAE are sponsoring the longest genocide in The Sudan!

    * GENOCIDE IN SUDAN, THE ROLE OF THE UAE, AND THE COMPLICITY OF THE WEST
    The Rapid Support Forces militia is committing genocide in Darfur in western Sudan, in the course of its civil war with Sudan's military rulers. The RSF is armed by the United Arab Emirates, a western ally in the Gulf which receives huge arms supplies from France, the US, the UK and others. UK military equipment sold to the UAE has been found in the hands of the RSF. The UK and other countries must stop arming UAE now and make concerted efforts to end the war and the genocide.

  5. Carrager did he apologise to evra personally DAGLISH LIVERPOOL saurez terry the list goes on and on jose sadddddddddd mannnnnnnnnn God SEES EVERYTHING KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING ❤GOD WILL JUDGE ❤BEAUTIFUL GAME 😢😢NAWWW UGLY GAME CORRUPT GAME 😢😢😢

  6. Kate speak as if she's absolutely sure he made a racial comment sad reality is people actually believe these commentators herny was on point though

  7. Did it occur to anyone that this player covered his mouth to insult or provoked Vinicius with other material than racist language ? I mean the game is plagued with fake behaviours. Kilian said he heard it; but was he close enough? and before the incident you can see Vinicius yelling at the guy in what is obviously not a love declaration. And so he covered his mouth and so he is guilty. Anything else is overlooked. When you accusing somebody, you better get it right. Otherwise it looks like a gigantic over consensual witch hunt.

  8. Argentinians are Italians immigrants from Italy. No wonder. UEFA must take a hard punishment for such a stupid racist creatures.

    His coach(Mr Mohrinho) is stupid one. Mr Mourino you are racist . We know you already. This is not your first time. VJ can dance what or he need ever to dance. Who are you to dictate Vinc…Jr how he dances for his very cool goal. Better train the club well. The worse is Mourinho's .

    He has to learn UEFA football culture.
    Argentinians are Italians. They immigrate from Italy. If he can not score such a goal he need to go argentina / home learn.

    Why does he covered his words or moith? And why does he came to them and provocate.

    For me the Argentina player is not only rassist and stupid.

    Mr Mourinho doesn't took any side? He shoud imagine why does he covered his mouth. This is in orders not to identify the words he talked, but there are two others who heard the player….!

  9. It’s all coming to the surface now. May it be for good, may it be for justice, fairness, and kindness for all. I think most of us have known for a long time, if we weren’t in denial, that pro sports is filled with misogyny, racism, yt ynw, so let’s let it into the light now. Well done, Vini J.

  10. Is very interesting that we do not care how players provoke other players or a full stadium that pays to see a game! AI believe that in Portugal, Spain, France , Italy there are a lot players of colour how just Vinicius has this problem? We look at the consequence istead of looking at the root cause! But we all like to play the victim when is suits us! Double standards!

  11. What annoys me most of all is how slippery these cowards are. It’s typical of racists to hide behind a mass of people in a stadium, an avatar online or a hand in front of a mouth. If you’ll pardon me the language, I cannot resist I name them what they are: little pussios.
