Unfortunately, the issue of racism continues to surface in football, and today another scandal has come to light.
Details: Cesena’s Serie B central defender Marco Cutro has been handed a 10-match ban by FIFA for racist behavior.
The incident in question occurred this summer during a friendly match between Wolverhampton and Como, the club that owns Cutro's rights.
During the game, Cutro clashed with Wolves' South Korean forward Hwang Hee-chan, after which the Italian made a racist comparison, likening his opponent to Jackie Chan, an actor of the same race.
Reminder: Earlier, English cricket club Essex was fined £100,000 for racism
