Manchester City and Ghana national team striker Antoine Semenyo has once again become a victim of racism on social media.

Details: The 26-year-old footballer shared a screenshot in the stories of his official Instagram account, exposing a comment from one of the users. In the image, you can see the user left an offensive message under one of Semenyo's posts, using a racial slur and a monkey emoji.

The abuse surfaced shortly after a match in which the forward failed to deliver the expected result. The comment read:

"By the time you sit on the bench for about 15 games, you'll learn how to play football, black monkey."

Semenyo did not let the incident slide, captioning the screenshot with a brief but deeply disappointed phrase:

“It's started again” – adding a pensive emoji.

Reminder: Antoine Semenyo named the greatest African player of all time.
