The striker of the “old lady” Dusan Vlahovic was the target of racist insults by Atalanta fans in the match of the 34th round of Serie A.
As a guest, Juventus defeated Atalanta in Bergamo with 0:2. In the 91st minute, the match was stopped due to insults directed at Dusan by the fans of the team from Bergamo, and he answered them with a goal in the 97th minute, after which he received a yellow card for celebrating the goal and silencing the fans.
The Italian Minister of Sports, Andrea Abodi, also spoke out about this event.
“My no and our no to racism. He can’t, he shouldn’t, he doesn’t want to have skin color, it doesn’t concern religion or people, but always applies. As respect, it always counts. Whoever makes a mistake has to answer for it, everywhere in the world. We apologize to Dusan Vlahovic,’ said Abodi.
