World Amazing Stuff: Banana thrown at Barcelona’s player by a racist fan

Banana thrown at Barcelona’s player by a racist fan





Barcelona star Daniel Alves had a banana thrown at him during Barca's 3-2 win at Villarreal's El Madrigal stadium on 27-04-2014 Sunday.

The Brazilian was taking a corner during Barca's 3-2 win at Villarreal's El Madrigal stadium when a banana landed at his feet. The Brazilian picked up the banana and took a bite out of it before continuing the game.

Alves has been a regular target of racist abuse during his 11 years in Spain with both Sevilla and Barcelona. “I have been in Spain 11 years and it has been the same for 11 years. You have to laugh at these backward people,” he said.

“We are not going to change it, so you have to take it almost as a joke and laugh at them.”
“Absolutely it’s a brilliant reaction from Alves. Treat the racist berk with complete disdain!,” tweeted former England international Gary Lineker who once played for Barcelona.
