Prince William ‘Sickened’ by England Fans Who Abused Black Players

Prince William issued a strong statement Monday saying he was “sickened” by racist abuse aimed at Black English soccer players after the teamThis content is not available due to your privacy preferences.William’s intervention came after Black players endured a torrent of abuse on social media and were taunted with racist emojis and phrases after three Black players missed key penalties that decided the game in Italy’s favor.

William’s remarks were echoed by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who had previously refused to condemn England fans who booed the players taking a knee in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.The racist abuse marked a miserable end to a match that at one stage threatened to be a glorious moment of sporting triumph.

England’s team had sent national hopes soaring when they went into the lead with a goal in the second minute of play. Images of Prince George, 7, celebrating as he watched the match with his parents, William and Kate, captured the national mood of elation. However as the game wore on, England failed to cement its lead. Italy then scored an equalizer and the young royal family looked increasingly anxious in their VIP aerie. And when the match culminated in the lost penalty shoot out, George, wearing a suit and tie, looked utterly bereft, with his father placing his hand on his shoulders as he sought to console him.It was a late and emotional night for the youngster, but he didn’t burst into tears, like many of the adults present.

William, who is president of the English Football Association, sent out a message shortly after the end of the match in which he congratulated Italy on its victory and sought to boost English morale ahead of next year’s World Cup in Qatar.

That Boris was sharing the 📦..sickening

dont forgot you saw the chance to pack the stadium with 66k of your fans vs 1000 italian cuz of a covid ban and you took it when it should have been a fan neutral final and still lost. Arrogant, shameful pr!cks.

Lots of shit is Unacceptable.

But acceptable to William and racist royals to hound Meghan Markle for over 5 years Shame on these royal hypocrites

Says the man almost at the head of one of the most racist institutions in the uk

The abhorrent English soccer ghouls may as well be wearing MAGA hats and T-shirts.
