Antisemitic abuse at Liverpool-Spurs Premier League match

Liverpool – Police are investigating allegations that
Liverpool supporters directed antisemitic language towards Tottenham Hotspur
players after the two sides’ heated Premier League match on Sunday. 

 

Video footage appeared to show a Liverpool fan in the Main
Stand section of Anfield using the term “Jewish c**ts” moments after Spurs
forward Harry Kane converted a contentious penalty to draw the match level at
2-2.

 

“Three or four” fans in total were also heard calling Tottenham
players “Yid cunts”, according to a journalist covering the game.

 

He said: “There was about three or four people that passed
me on the way out of Anfield who were engaged in it.

 

“One supporter spotted some Spurs fans celebrating Kane’s
penalty and started screaming ‘Yid cunts’ repeatedly as he left and was
gesturing towards them.

 

“I’m sure (Liverpool’s) stadium cameras would pick him out if
they provided it. Others just shouted about ‘Yids’.”
