Football News : Rashford receives at least 70 racial slurs after Europa final defeat

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford said he faced "at least 70 racial slurs" on social media after his team's loss on penalties to Villarreal in the Europa League final on Wednesday night. Villarreal won their first major trophy, 11-10 on penalties after a 1-1 draw following extra time in the final. "At least 70 racial slurs on my social accounts counted so far," Rashford wrote on Twitter less than 90 minutes after the game finished. "For those working to make me feel any worse than I already do, good luck trying." Rashford added he was "outraged" that he was sent "a mountain of monkey emojis" in a message from a person using a profile which identified them as a teacher.
