Cristiano Ronaldo has posted a picture to support Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly who was racially abused by Inter fans last night.
The Portuguese star posted a picture together with the Napoli defender with a message written in Italian: “Education and respect are needed in the world and in football. No to racism and to any offense and discrimination”, Ronaldo wrote on Instagram
Napoli boss Carlo Ancelotti revealed yesterday that he demanded to stop the game three times due to the racist abuses of Inter fans against his defender.
Kalidou Koulibaly also posted a social media message after the game
“I am sorry for the defeat and for the fact that I left my brothers. However, I am proud for the colour of my skin. I am proud to be French, Senegalese and Neapolitan and a man”.

I think God created all kind of different races to make the earth look beautiful. we are all the same inside either from #Africa #Europe #Asia # America etc. A human skin is just like flowers with different colours in the garden but they are all flowers same applies to humans. I am a proud African and black in Colour from Zambia.I hurt racism.

D Serie A is a big mess of a league when it comes to racism. Football bodies around d world need to issue much bigger punishments for racism.

Thanks CR7 for showing your condemnation towards it as you are the role model for many people and they can learn from you besides your football skills. The sporting environment becomes contaminated due to this. The exciting thing about this sport is that it brings different people together

football is another world of no religious where they try to treat everyone equally but the fans are always trying to build 👆 a wall that will destroy the world of football by putting frustrating some players with these issues racism the racism issue is becoming a boarding to the world of football and I fear for the damage it may bring to football world in time to come
