Some football fans on Twitter have called out British tabloid Daily mail for insinuating Watford and Nigerian striker Isaac Success was racially abused in the 2-2 draw against Everton at Goodison park.
In a picture on the back page of the tabloid, fans could be seen shouting at Success during the game but it hasn't been confirmed if racist remarks were made or not.
Wolexis.com tried contacting Isaac Success but we are yet to get a reply.
Fans however have called out Dailymail on Twitter
Daily Mail insinuating that our fans were giving racial abuse to Isaac Success.— Evertons The Kendall End (@TheKendallEnd) December 11, 2018
This is absolutely disgusting, in reality the Daily Mail are a large part of racism in football at the moment as they were the ones making the articles about Raheem Sterling. pic.twitter.com/CmZGjhyUqX
Is this going to be the new phase now? Joke from the Daily Mail, this.— Alex Glover (@alexglover1878) December 10, 2018
Clearly went with an agenda to find any image like this tonight after the weekends events. Trash journalism pic.twitter.com/I9WyaYrd7a
Daily Mail insinuating Everton fans are being racist towards Success without any evidence but a picture you will see every single game with any player is the laziest, most obscene piece of ‘journalism’ I’ve seen in a long time. Just happens to be after this weekend as well. pic.twitter.com/gEGYADiV99— Thomas Watson (@Wattoefc) December 11, 2018
This comes a day after Raheem Sterling called out the media outfit for fuelling racist abuse towards black players with their biased headlines
View this post on InstagramGood morning I just want to say , I am not normally the person to talk a lot but when I think I need my point to heard I will speak up. Regarding what was said at the Chelsea game as you can see by my reaction I just had to laugh because I don’t expect no better. For example you have two young players starting out there careers both play for the same team, both have done the right thing. Which is buy a new house for there mothers who have put in a lot of time and love into helping them get where they are, but look how the News Papers get there message across for the young black player and then for the young white payer. I think this in unacceptable both innocent have not done a thing wrong but just by the way it has been worded. This young black kid is looked at in a bad light. Which helps fuel racism an aggressive behaviour, so for all the news papers that don’t understand why people are racist in this day and age all i have to say is have a second thought about fair publicity an give all players an equal chance.
