YouTuber and streamer AngryGinge has spoken out after allegedly witnessing a man use racist language during a recent World Cup match.
England and Ghana faced off in a group-stage clash earlier this week, with the points shared in a 0-0 draw at the Boston Stadium.
AngryGinge was among the high-profile names in attendance and has now detailed his efforts to get a man kicked out for allegedly using racist language during the game.
AngryGinge criticises American stewards during England vs Ghana
As quoted by the Daily Mail, AngryGinge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, said: “We have a situation where the gentleman that is sat there is being racist [points to an empty seat in front of him].
“I’ve reported it to the steward because, kick it out is the saying, I will stand by that. So he’s going now getting his supervisor, and we’ll see what happens. There’s no way he should ever set foot at a stadium or watch a football game ever again.”
During the video in which the incident was discussed, a message appeared which read: “The man sat in front was making incredibly racist comments toward the Ghanaian national team. Due to this, it was only right for me to stand up and deal with this.”
He continued: “Apparently, the steward said he can’t kick him out unless he does it again. I said there’s no way on earth. All of us have heard it. He’s got to go. So we’re getting a team to kick him out now or something.
Later in the video, AngryGinge criticised the American stewards for how they acted, saying: “It’s absolutely not good enough from the American stewards, the message before the game, the message is ‘kick it out’ – ‘if you see it, say it’.
“I’ve gone and reported it, he’s not been kicked out of the stadium, we saw him as we left, he’s been allowed to watch the whole game after the things he was saying about the Ghana team.
“I think it’s an absolute ——- disgrace he’s been allowed to stay in after I had the evidence and five witnesses heard him say it.
“It’s an absolute ——- disgrace, it’s wrong on every single level that he can stay and get away with it. I did my part, I couldn’t have done any more.”
The report from the Mail adds that the man in question was eventually removed from his seat but is said to have remained inside the ground to watch the remainder of the tie.
