The fourth official’s racist insult to a Basaksehir collaborator

–

The match between Paris Saint-Germain and Istanbul Basaksehir, for the sixth date of Group H of the European Champions League, was suspended 16 minutes into the first half for a racist insult by the fourth official to an assistant of the Turkish team.

The term “negro” with which the fourth official of the clash in Paris, Romanian Sebastian Colescu, identified Basaksehir’s technical assistant Pierre Webo, motivated the players of both teams to leave, in repudiation, to the changing rooms.

“When you talk about someone white, you don’t say that white, why do you say ‘black’ when it comes to someone black?”, the visiting player Demba Ba reproached the referee.

“The black man over there”, the racist insult of the fourth official at PSG – Basaksehir

–

The episode was generated when Colescu wanted to identify Webo for a disciplinary sanction from the main referee, Ovidiu Hategan. “The black over there. Go and see who it is. It’s the black man over there. It is not permissible for him to behave like this ”, was the controversial phrase.

The Basaksehir wrote “no to racism” on their social networks and Paris Saint Germain replied the message from their accounts.

After both campuses retired to the dressing rooms, it was confirmed that the match will resume this Wednesday with a new referee list. The president of the Turkish Basaksehir had announced that his players will not jump onto the pitch if the 4th referee, accused of racist insults towards a member of the Istanbul club, does not leave.

“The fourth official said ‘black’ in front of everyone! If the fourth official is removed from the game, we will play again. If he is still on the pitch, then Basaksehir will not return, ”Göksel Gümüsdag told Turkish television channel TRT Sport.

In this way, when the match resumes on Wednesday, UEFA will not consider Basaksehir (3-0) for lost, as established by the regulations. This will also allow that there are no consequences in the final classification of group H, where Leipzig and Manchester United are also found.
