Randal Kolo Muani, Ousmane Dembele, Achraf Hakimi and Layvin Kurzawa have been named as the four players who have been handed suspensions.
Another reason to hate “le petit saint germain”.
That’s a pretty rough list. You sorta hope, as if it makes it better somehow, that it was some back bencher who was destined for 5 mins in a cup tie.
nope its dembele and hakimi
The response from PSG is so telling:
“The club regrets that the Disciplinary Commission has opted for an excessive and collective measure, likely to undermine the work of dialogue and prevention undertaken by the Club with associations, institutions and fans.”
They could/should have said “homophobia is wrong and we condemn is. Neither our fans nor our players should be singing these hurtful chants. We accept the punishment and shall be donating ___ € to [insert LGBTQ+ organization] as well as send the players involved to [insert related community program].”
Obviously PSG are villains so this would never happen, but imagine a world in which football clubs and players would use their position to make the world a better place? It’s so goddamn easy and I think it’s important to remember that PSG is choosing to be this way.
I mean, the club is owned by Qataris, so…
