Problems with Racism


Palmeiras played this week against Atletico Paranaense for Copa Do Brasil at Palestra Italia. Palmeiras won one to zero with a goal scored by Robert in the first half. In a corner for Atletico Paranaense Manoel who is the tems defender headbutted Danilo who is Palmeiras defender. Danilo got really mad and called Manoel a monkey due to his skin color. Later on Danilo spat on Manoel. Paulo Baier was sent of due to a foul in Danilo and when he was injured on the floor Manoel stepped on him. At the end of the game Atletico Paranaense wanted to put Danilo in jail due to his racist act on the field. Danilo recently apoligized to his team mated and especially to Manoel. ``Both of us are professionals and I didnt want to be racist. I was just really mad and it came out. I will never do it again. As a human I have the right to make mistakes and I apologize but I would like to hear it from Manoel. ´´Said Danilo. Danilo went to the police station in his own will to talk to a police officer of the case. He said that he didnt want to be racist and that he will never do it agian. Danilo and Manoel wont be able to play for a few games and Danilo will have to pay a large quantity of money. Both players did something that was unacceptable and they will have to deal with the consequences.
