Galatasary Keeping It Classy With Conspiracy Theories And Racism Denial
Injuries happen in football. While some have more malice than others, the two injuries to Galatasaray players at Anfield last Wednesday were purely incidental.
Still, that did not stop angry Galatasaray fans from seeking out Ibou Konate’s social media accounts and spouting racist abuse at him after his coming together with Victor Osimhen, which left the striker with an apparent arm fracture.
This, however, is just a distraction according to Galatasaray General Secretary Eray Yazgan. The real issue, according to him, is the even more random and non-malicious injury to Noa Lang after getting his thumb caught in an advertising board.
“Liverpool has not offered a single apology to our club or our player. This is unacceptable. This silence and disregard for responsibility is an attempt to cover up the incident,” Yazgan said.
“While Liverpool hasn’t even apologized, they are now trying to divert attention by bringing up imaginary statements they claim were made on social media against their player Ibrahima Konate. While there is a serious situation threatening the player’s health, Liverpool is trying to change the subject.”
“A club like Liverpool should first account for the scandal that happened on their pitch and offer the necessary apology without delay. UEFA has launched an investigation into the incident in which Lang was injured. We have also had contact with them. We will not let this go. “
Like so many so-called leaders nowadays, every single accusation is an admission. It is not Liverpool who are attempting to change the subject, but rather Yazgan. And it’s disgusting.
Keep it classy, Gala.
