The day after Monaco – PSG (2-4), the action of the 17th minute continues to cause a lot of talk. And slip…
Wilfried Singo’s sole in Gianluigi Donnarumma’s face, in the first period of Monaco – PSG, was not sanctioned with a red card and everyone more or less agreed that M’s decision Letexier was incomprehensible, even though the Monegasque defender was already sanctioned with a yellow card. And it is unfortunately no surprise, the Ivorian player suffered his traditional and disgusting share of insults on social networks, some of which were clearly racist.
“These behaviors have no place in sport and are in total contradiction with our values”
The ASM was obliged to condemn “with the greatest firmness these unacceptable racist remarks of which Wilfried Singo was the target on social networks”: “This behavior has no place in sport, nor on the field nor outside, and are in total contradiction with the values that the club defends. The club gives its full support to Wilfried Singo.
The player apologized, still online with a message, to the attention of the Italian goalkeeper of PSG who had to give up his place and was left with a big scar: “I was able to see that he had this injury important to the face. I wish him a good recovery.” While specifying, of course, that this gesture was not voluntary, which the Parisians also readily agreed with (while not understanding, for the most part, the absence of at least a second yellow card). But all this, obviously, still does not justify this surge of hatred which too many Internet users seize at the slightest opportunity. An increasingly recurring problem which pushes certain athletes to leave social networks, like Thierry Henry who notably warned about this problem in 2021.
