PSG vs Instanbul was suspended early into the game after a member of the Istanbul staff reported a racist remark from the 4th official and both teams backed the coach up in walking off of the pitch in protest. Demba Ba lead the protest and told all the players to leave the pitch but before he did that he confronted the 4th official and with no fans in the stadium we were able to hear what he said.

Well done to Ba, we need more players willing to stand up and fight for what is right.
