Rudiger spoke out (Picture: Getty)Antonio Rudiger called for racist fans to ‘get some basic education’ after he was allegedly racially abused during Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur. But the referee stopped the game, spoke with the players, spoke with the captains, spoke with the coaches. ‘It has become clear that football players are on the receiving end of the blatant racism that is currently rife in the UK, but they are not alone. Racist abuse in football is not just an issue for black and ethnic minority players, it is an issue for everyone who loves the game. We believe that the time has come for all governing bodies to unite collectively to end this abuse.
