Moise Kean celebrates in front of the Cagliari fans who racially abused ...



LONDON -- Yaya Toure has said Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci and manager Massimiliano Allegri are "a disgrace" for their criticism of forward Moise Kean's celebration in the face of racist abuse from Cagliari fans.
Kean celebrated his 85th-minute goal in Tuesday's Serie A match at Sardegna Arena by standing in front of Cagliari supporters with his arms outstretched, having earlier endured monkey chants from the stands.
He was criticised by teammate Bonucci and manager Allegri after the game and Toure, speaking during a panel discussion at UEFA's Equal Game conference on Wednesday, said: "For me it's a disgrace. You can't do that.
"It was unbelievable. A teammate, a manager saying: 'You shouldn't have done that' to one of your own players.
"I think it's the worst scenario you can have in football. Your teammate attacking you, saying things like that, is just unbelievable. I can't imagine how hurt he was when he saw that."
Bonucci appeared to shove Kean back towards the centre circle after the goal and following the 2-0 win, was critical of the fans' chanting and Kean's reaction to it. Allegri, after condemning "one or two idiots" in the Cagliari crowd, added that Kean should "avoid certain gestures."
Toure, who has suffered racist abuse at various points during his career, began his address on Wednesday by asking: "I want to know if the Italian FA is here today?"
When it was confirmed that Italian FA representatives were present, he added: "I want to see what the Italian FA is going to do about that. It's really important because this is what we're fighting for. I want to see what the response is."
Asked whether players should walk off the pitch following racist abuse, Toure added: "Yes definitely. When this kind of thing happens we need to send a message, not only to the fans but the people at the top as well.
"Something has to be done, because we're tired of always coming back to this same problem. As long as those people in the stands, the people in government and at the top don't decide anything, it's still going to happen. What are we going to do? Continue to come here and talk, and talk, with nothing being done?
"I hope something's going to be done properly as soon as possible."
Bonucci's comments were roundly condemned on social media and throughout the football world, with England international Raheem Sterling posting on Instagram: "All you can do now is laugh."
Sterling was the subject of racist abuse from Montenegro fans during England's Euro 2020 qualifier in Podgorica, which has led to a charge by UEFA.
Later on Wednesday, Bonucci posted an Instagram story which included a picture of himself and Kean with the comment: "Regardless of everything, in any case ... No to racism."
Immediately after the match, Kean posted a picture of his celebration on Instagram, with the caption: "The best way to respond to racism."
And Marseille striker Mario Balotelli, a teammate of Bonucci's with Italy, replied to the picture and said: "And tell Bonucci he's lucky I wasn't there. Instead of defending you he does this? I'm in shock, I swear. I love you bro."
A representative of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) stood up to address the panel at Wembley after feeling compelled to respond to the Kean incident.
Clarifying that FIGC president Michele Uva could not make it to the conference due to a federal board meeting in Rome, the spokeswoman said: "Of course we are very sorry for what happened last night. Unfortunately our CEO is not here but we are doing the best to tackle this issue."
ESPN FC has contacted Juventus, Kean and Bonucci for comment.

Brian (Waterhead Bo) Bennett

Brian (Waterhead Bo) Bennett So who was the biggest black kingpin of all time? Just how do you measure that? Money, volume of dope, power, cultural impact? Perhaps it was Frank Matthews… you can learn more about him in my documentary “The Frank Matthews Story” link. But in terms of documented transactions that we know about for sure, who was convicted in court: One man stands alone. Brian “Waterhead Bo” Bennett. Bennett and his Colombian Partner, Mario Villabona, were eventually convicted of moving nearly l5 thousand kilos that they talked about on certain wiretaps between December of 1987 and November of 1988. Some of the loads were as large as 1000 kilos and cheaper than $9,000 dollars each wholesale. That’s 1500 keys a month for nearly a year. And that’s just on the wiretapped phones. Who knows how much he really sold in total. Claims are made about this one and that one selling more, but 15,000 keys sold for sure is the most we know about for any black dealer. Waterhead B

49ers cheerleader kneels again during anthem before 'Monday Night Football' On Nov. 1, a San Francisco 49ers cheerleader  took a knee during the national anthem ahead of the team’s Thursday night matchup with the Oakland Raiders. She was later  identified as Kayla Morris  of Antioch, California,  a second-year member  of the 49ers’ Gold Rush cheer squad. Morris declined to discuss protest Both Morris and the 49ers  declined media requests  to discuss her kneeling after the Thursday night game, and some wondered if the act of protest would cost Morris her spot on the team.

Colin Kaepernick’s Jersey Is Among The NFL’s Top Sellers

Colin Kaepernick’s Jersey Is Among The NFL’s Top Sellers Even though colin has been out of the league for years, his #7 san fran Jersey is still among the most sold amoung nfl players. Colin Kaepernick is still dealing with being blackballed by NFL owners and general managers, but at least he continues to get love from some from fans. 20 free agent quarterbacks have been signed ahead of him during the offseason, and even the blind can see that it’s a direct result of the stance he took when he refused to stand during the national anthem to protest against police brutality and systemic racism in America. The quarterback who threw for 2,241 yards and 16 touchdowns last year while starting 12 games has only been able to secure one workout with the Seattle Seahawks, despite being a few seasons removed from starting in the Super Bowl. But his fans are showing their support. Among last months best-selling jerseys released by the NFL Shop, Kaepernick ranked 17th ahead of quarterbac

Adam Silver Thinks A Rule Will Make Players Stand For The Anthem

Adam Silver Thinks A Rule Will Make Players Stand For The Anthem The rise of player protests against racial injustice has presented a problem for money-driven league commissioners and owners. An age of enlightenment, social activism and unified awareness concerning police brutality and racial inequality is flourishing in pro sports and motivating Black athletes to finally understand the magnitude of their power and use it to challenge the outdated and oppressive status quo and form of financial and psychological control that has been prevalent in pro sports.   Since Colin Kaepernick took a knee and even before that with the Black Live Matter Movement and players expressing their social and political views on traditional sports platforms such as The ESPYs, the game has changed and league execs and owners are scrambling to find a way to regain control of the minds and bodies of their players.

Montana Malik Baronette

Montana Malik Baronette This 21-year old has been called the “Number one trigger-puller” by Baltimore city police and was only recently arrested and charged with a 2014 murder. However, police suspect that he is linked to hundreds of violent crimes and more than a dozen homicides as an alleged member of the notorious Baltimore street gang the “Black Guerilla Family”. Nothing makes a killer more infamous than a memorable nickname, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a more memorable name than “Number One Trigger Puller”.  Baronette is currently awaiting trial on the West Baltimore murder of 23-year-old Alfonso Williams.
