Bulgaria fans being racist

Say No To Racism!

Gareth Southgate has admitted England considered walking off after suffering racist abuse in Bulgaria but says his players were determined to stay on and make a stand in their Euro 2020 qualifier.

England ran out 6-0 winners in Sofia but the game was marred by the torrent of racist abuse directed at their players with the game twice halted during the first half.

“The players were keen to finish the half and then have the discussion at half time,” confirmed Southgate.

“I’m incredibly proud of the players and all the staff. Of course, we could be criticised for not going far enough. But I think we have made a huge statement and, frankly, we were in an impossible situation to get it right for the satisfaction of everyone.”

Captain Harry Kane added:

“The lads decided to stay out. They wanted to play. They wanted to carry on.”

While UEFA has declined to comment on events in Sofia, Sky Sports News’ Kaveh Solhekol reported:

“It seemed, especially in the first half, that when any black England players got the ball they were subjected to abuse, racist abuse, monkey chants, Nazi salutes – the worst racism I’ve ever seen at a game.”
