But why do not we use the technique that every racist is identified, kicked out, and never returned to the stadium? &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>Such measures would &#8220;help mankind and not only sport,&#8221; added the 30-year-old, who returned to Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer .<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are incidents in every new season. It just can not happen. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>In January 2013, Boateng left the squad in a friendly match with AC Milan against Pro Patria after he and other dark-skinned players had been offended by spectators.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whenever I got the ball, there were breeding and monkey suits against me,&#8221; he later said before an Italian court. &#8220;I was mocked because I&#8217;m dark-skinned.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After that, Boateng was invited to the UN Round-Table on Anti-Racism Day.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
