This article pertains to the issue of racism in football today. While football has come along way since its time in Brazil during the early 20th century, the issue of racism is still an ever-present factor during international football matches. We see how CSKA Moscow fans racially abused Yaya Toure, a Manchester City player, during a match in Russia a few months ago. While this is incident is very concerning, an even more pressing issue is the fact that Russia will be hosting the 2018 World Cup and is also fighting with gay rights activists as the Winter Olympics are on the verge of commencing in Russia as well.
