The candidate for the Ukrainian national football team, Danylo Ignatenko, found himself under a lot of hype due to accusations of racist remarks during a match in the French League 2.
This is reported by L'Equipe.
During the match of the second French division between "Bordeaux" (Ignatenko plays for this club) and "Dunkirk", the defender of the guests Alyun Ba complained to the referee about Ignatenko, who insulted him on racial grounds.
According to the publication's source, Ignatenko used the ambiguous expression black pussy in relation to his opponent.
The referee made a note in the protocol about the incident, but did not punish the Ukrainian with a yellow or red card. The potential victim later criticized the arbitrator for inaction.
"Dunkirk" turned to the disciplinary committee of League 2 to punish the Ukrainian midfielder, and "Bordeaux" started an internal investigation. The verdict in the Ignatenko case is expected on May 16.
