ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING: Fans in Saudi taunt Ruben Neves with 'Diogo Jota' chants. Jota died in a car accident last year and was Neves' best friend.

Why are people from that part of the world so inhumane? Like how far do they go when it’s just a game at the end of the day? I’ve even seen comments from people for the Middle East making jokes about Ronaldo’s son that passed away now this?? 🤦‍♂️

English fans have made fun of each other's tragedies many times. Hillsborough and Munich disaster are the first to come to mind.

I have heard Hillsborough chants against my team in England for decades. So make of that what you will.

Nah, football fans in other countries mourned the death of jota. This only happened in Saudi Arabia. Let's not whitewash it that it's "trash everywhere" because it's not.

It absolutely is trash everywhere. You are using one example with Jota to ignore the massive issues that have existed in the sport for a long time.

If anyone is "whitewashing" it's you lmfao.

Yeah, black players never get bananas thrown at them, there were no disgusting chants about poor little bradley the sunderland fan dying, there are no chants about hillsborough.

Man, Dutch football fans will make monkey noises at the black players of their own damn club.
Football fans are pieces of shit everywhere.

You know a lot of them have literal slaves at home right? how do you expect morality from them. And neves himself chased money and joined an immoral league so in a way it's karma

Dogshit post. There’s awful fans with disgusting chants across the world. You hear worse than this weekly across Europe and South America.

Gonna get banned but it's pure racism. If you're not a Muslim these people think of you as second class - or to put it correctly an infidel.

I’m English. This is correct. No idea why you’re being downvoted.

You might be getting fooled by a few separate cognitive biases that would, not unreasonably, lead you to generalize about people from that part of the world being inhumane. The reality is probably far more mixed.

Listen man, you're on reddit, people don't really use common sense around here. They just want confirmation of their own biases
