A man who racially abused Brentford striker Ivan Toney on social media has been banned from every soccer stadium in Britain for three years in what police described Tuesday as a "landmark ruling." Antonio Neill sent a racist message to Toney on his Instagram account after the striker scored two goals against Brighton in a Premier League match on Oct.

14. Police started an investigation after Toney shared a picture of the abuse and the message was traced to the 24-year-old Neill, who lives in Blyth, a town in northern England. JUVENTUS WOMEN'S SOCCER UNDER FIRE OVER RACIST TWEET Neill appeared in a magistrates' court in Newcastle on Jan.

25 and pleaded guilty to sending an offensive message. On Monday, he was handed a four-month sentence suspended for two years as well as a three-year soccer banning order, the first to be issued under a government act which became law in 2022.

That widened the scope for banning orders to be issued for online hate crimes relating to a person with a connection to a soccer organization.
