A sad episode of racism shakes Lazio. A fan who is part of an organized group of the Curva Nord, has published a tweet that has created outrage. “With the latest signings and the imminent sale of Marcos Antonio, we will once again have a squad without black players: good day”. To the tweet he added a black heart and an open hand, to recall the color symbol of fascism and the greeting with an outstretched arm. The mass reaction was absolutely the opposite: “Daspo for life, to you and your whole family. Shame on you, even if I think you won’t be able to do it”, writes a user.

For the moment, however, only Marcos Antonio has reacted, called into question in the tweet.
