MARADONA: “RACISM? THIS IS NOT HAPPENING IN NAPLES”

There are many facets of racism, there is one for the skin color and the one linked to geographical location. Calcium often becomes a carrier of this social scourge and also in Serie A racial discrimination there. Diego Armando Maradona, he still has in mind a few episodes despicable.

The ‘golden’ recounted some of his experiences when he was playing with Napoli: “Once we went to play in Verona and there was a banner saying: ‘Wash, messy Neapolitan’,” says the microphones of ‘ESPN + ‘during transmission’ Hablemos de futbol ‘.

In Turin there have been incidents of racism, curious what reminded by Maradona: “We were playing against Torino and when Junior (the Brazilian who played in Turin) took the ball, you could hear the screaming monkey type. He came to me to ask me: “But you’re listening to?” And I said, “Yes, but these are the fans of Turin. Are not ours. This does not happen in Naples. ”

The former blue phenomenon is therefore convinced that racism starts from geographic North and defends the Neapolitan fans, often targeted by supporters of La Scala.
