During
his heroic display in Friday’s Serie A match, Bologna striker Musa Barrow was
the target of racist abuse from a Roma fan in the Stadio Olimpico press box.
Barrow
produced a man-of-the-match display in Rome, scoring two goals and providing an
assist as Bologna edged Roma with a 3-2 win.
In
the course of the game, a Roma fan racially insulted the 21-year-old Gambia
international who has now scored three goals in his arrival from Atalanta in
January.
Although
he was dismissed from the press box after he was reported to the stewards, Goal
understands Roma have taken a firm stance against such inhumane acts with
severe punishments.
The
Giallorossi have banned the fan from buying tickets to any of their games for
the next three years while the journalist who sold his slot in the press box to
the culprit has been given a year suspension.
