​Istanbul Basaksehir And PSG Players Walk Off During Champions League Clash After Accusing Fourth Official Of Racism

Istanbul Basaksehir and Paris Saint-Germain players walked off the pitch during their Champions League clash after accusing the Fourth Official of racism.

With the game goalless, Basaksehir substitute Demba Ba claimed the official referred to Webo as 'the black guy'.

The video below shows Ba furiously remonstrating with a referee, stating: "You never say, 'This white guy.' Why when you mention a black guy, you have to say, 'this black guy.'"
