Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk says racist abuse of Antoine Semenyo is ‘a disgrace’

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk believes football has to continue to try to educate the next generation about racism after labelling the abuse aimed at Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo as a “disgrace”.

The 4-2 win was briefly halted in the first half at Anfield as referee Anthony Taylor went to report a complaint made by the Cherries winger.

In a statement Liverpool said of the incident, which is the subject of Merseyside Police and Premier League investigations: “We condemn racism and discrimination in all forms, it has no place in society or football.”

A great player but above all, a great human being.

Only a strong character shows such resilience in those circumstances.

We love you and are all with you, Antoine ❤️ pic.twitter.com/PNLxdLOeTx
