Burnley Players Refuse to Shake Hands with Opponent: What's the Issue?

The FA Cup Round of 16 matches are underway, and an unusual situation unfolded in the only match featuring Championship teams against each other.

Details: Burnley players refused to shake hands with Preston forward Milyutin Osmajic. This stems from events two weeks ago. On February 15, the teams faced off in the league, and Osmajic reportedly made a racist remark towards Burnley player Hannibal Mejbri.

Osmajic claimed he said "bad person" to Hannibal, while the Burnley midfielder asserted that the Preston striker said "black" instead of "bad." The matter is currently under review by the Football Association, which has yet to issue its verdict, allowing Osmajic to participate in this match. The forward scored a goal and brought his team to a 3-0 victory.

Reminder: In the match between Crystal Palace and Millwall, Crystal Palace's forward Jean-Philippe Mateta suffered a serious injury.
