KRC Genk beat Anderlecht 2-1 on Saturday. The Limburgers are doing very well in the Champions Qualifiers. After that, Genk player Zakaria Al-Wahidi became a victim of racism.
The Professional League has been taking action against discrimination and racism for a long time. But Genk player Zakaria Al-Wahidi fell victim to this after the match against Anderlecht.
FC Limburg is disseminating this matter itself through its official channels. “After the match against Anderlecht, in which Zakaria Lahidi once again captured the hearts of Genk fans, the young Moroccan became a victim of online racism. She added that he received several insults on social media.
General Manager Eric Gerets has already announced that the club will take further steps. “Racism and hate speech have never been eliminated and we must strongly condemn them.”
“KRC Genk will file a complaint with the police and hopes that the perpetrators will be quickly arrested. We will continue to report and draw attention to these hateful phenomena as long as they occur,” Gerrits concludes.
Al-Wahdi played a very good match against Anderlecht. The winger provided an assist for Tolo's first goal.
