Cristiano and Nathalie have already had to deal with homophobia and sexism in football: “My first thought was: I quit”

Cristiano Ferri (44) and Nathalie De Volder (24) are the faces of a new campaign against discrimination in football. One has never dared to come out of the closet because of the homophobia in the dressing room, the other is told as an arbitrator that she should return to her kitchen. They talk about what happened to them and how football can become more beautiful. “When supporters chant ‘all farmers are gay’, the match should be stopped.”
