Project 2

Soccer is a sport loved by millions of people around the world and is considered the world’s most popular sport. However, hidden under FIFA there are a lot of problems dealing with racism in the sport and how this affects the players, coaches, teams, and even the supporters involved. In this podcast, I will talk about Kevin-Prince Boateng and his struggles and experiences with racism and what is being done by FIFA to solve this issue. Many soccer fans will know that racism is very prevalent in the sport in many countries around the world, but little know how bad it really is because FIFA mostly tries to hide it, until many players started to act out against it. In this case Boateng was through with being slandered during a match in Italy, and finally picked up the ball and joined by his teammates walked off the field in disgust to finally take a stand against racism and to bring it into the spotlight.
