Description
On this week’s show we focus on racism in football, and hear from FIFA secretary-general Fatma Samoura, who says that FIFA’s main strategy to deal with racism in the game is their anti-discrimination policies and grassroots education campaigns. But there was much surprise and criticism when a Fifa Taskforce Against Racism and Discrimination was disbanded four years ago, after meeting only three times, and we get the views of renowned African football journalist Osasu Obayiuwana, who was a member of the Taskforce. Plus, South African coach Pitso Mosimane joins Al Ahly, and lots on the EPL as debate over the handball law dominated Matchday 3.
