CONCACAF To Probe Racist Abuse Of Canadian Player In Copa America
CONCACAF said Friday it will investigate online racist abuse directed at Canadian player Moise Bombito following his team's tournament-opening Copa America defeat to Argentina. Bombito was subjected to online abuse in the wake of Canada's 2-0 loss following an incident late in Thursday's game in Atlanta where he tackled Argentina star Lionel Messi. Replays showed the 24-year-old Colorado Rapids player sliding in on Messi and making heavy contact with the Inter Miami player's ankle.
