LONDON: Facebook has removed the Instagram accounts with which Welsh internationals Rabbi Matondo and Ben Cabango were racially abused following the 1-0 win over Mexico on Saturday. Facebook owns Instagram and acted a few hours after Matondo had slammed the social media platform, accusing Instagram of doing nothing about racist abuse. Welsh police have said they are “investigating the origin of racially motivated social media posts” aimed at Cabango and Matondo. “And it continues... another week of Instagram doing absolutely nothing about racial abuse,” Matondo wrote on Twitter. “My Instagram will get taken down if I post any clips from my games though... priorities.”The duo are the latest footballers to be racially abused on social media.
