  • Simon Zebo opens up on being racially abused whilst playing for Racing 92. The winger was subject to racist slurs from an Ulster fan who was later handed a lifetime ban. Zebo believes sport is the perfect opportunity to make a powerful stance against racism.

    Disgraceful what’s happened to him. How can you hate Zebo? He’s the most loveable guy on the pitch

    Zebo is absolutely bang on in saying that if opposing supporters racially abuse a player then the team should be punished and not just giving a ban of any type to the supporter. That's a bigger incentive to stop racial abuse at least in sport

    I think the exclamation mark should be removed from the video title. I can't quite see what it's doing there.

    Professional sports creates high emotions. Why is it that the grief that players get is ignored unless you are non white?

      Because it’s not just grief, it’s racism. There’s a clear difference.
