The Sweeper: Mario Balotelli and Racism in Italian Football

Big Story

Last season, Juventus were forced to play a game behind closed doors after fans racially abused Inter's Mario Balotelli. On Saturday, Balotelli was abused again this time by Cagliari fans and the match went on, a decision criticised after by both Massimo Moratti, President of Inter, and by Italian Footballers Association president Sergio Campana.
