Wales FA condemns online racist abuse of players

The Hindu  

The Football Association of Wales said it was "disgusted" by the racial abuse its players received on social media platforms after Saturday's friendly win over Mexico. "The FAW is disgusted by the racial abuse received by players via social media after last night's game," the FAW said in a statement on Sunday. "The FAW joins other national associations and clubs in urging social media platforms and regulatory authorities to take stronger, more effective and more urgent action against this despicable behaviour," it added. England manager Gareth Southgate said players should consider joining former France international Henry in quitting social media to avoid being affected by negative comments and online abuse.
