A group of Brescia fans were heard racially abusing Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic last night.
Sport Mediaset reports chants of ‘zingaro’ - or ‘gypsy’ in English - came from the Brescia curva, aimed at Pjanic.
The Bosnian had the last laugh, scoring the winning goal at the Rigamonti and celebrating with an ‘M’ gesture.
“From that position, you don’t worry about where the ball ends up but rather who to hug first next to you,” he wrote on Instagram.
Bologna boss Sinisa Mihajlovic has complained of the derogatory term being hurled at him in the past.
It comes just two days after the FIGC vowed to investigate the racial abuse subjected to Fiorentina left-back Dalbert.
This is also already the fourth racist incident to tar Serie A this season after those involving Romelu Lukaku and Franck Kessie, as well as Dalbert.

Please ppl educate yourselves and those around you. Racism comes in many forms and has NO place in our societies. Especially sport where we as fans come together as one, for our love, not hated. Stand up and say no to racism!

After going through a couple of comments, I have realized that people think it’s okay to racially abuse black players! But when they’re white it’s strange. As one said racism comes in many forms we might be racist in one way or another! The solution is to make sure that all human beings are equally treated.
