Blatter steps into racism controversy

"It's not just a problem of racism, but also of discrimination." These are the words of FIFA president Sepp Blatter who, just when we talk about racism in football and in England there are a lot of controversy around the case as protagonists Chelsea player John Terry and Liverpool Luis Suarez, commented with questionable words.

"At a football match may happen to have certain attitudes towards an opponent, it can sometimes turn against him phrases that reflect your personality. But in the end - continues the Swiss - all because no one forgets you can talk about racism. Off the field, sometimes incidents of discrimination may occur, not on the pitch, in my opinion. "

His statements are sure to be the source of a long series of controversies that will falter even more its position at the top of world football. On Twitter, the England defender Rio Ferdinand has already left his comment, saying he hoped what he read about Blatter doesn't correspond to the case. Much harder is the reaction of the Executive Director of the Football Association, Gordon Taylor, who had demanded the resignation of FIFA's number one.

In recent days Blatter, contrary to the inclusion of technology in football, had received a little touch of Michel Platini "The pole refs did not convince him? For sure it's not his idea," but it is evident a general decline of satisfaction towards him so that his resignation is no longer utopian and bookmakers begin to quote one of his farewell.
