Bournemouth captain ‘shocked' and ‘angry' after Antoine Semenyo reports racist abuse in Liverpool match at Anfield
Bournemouth captain Adam Smith said he was 'shocked' and 'angry' after teammate Antoine Semenyo reported receiving racist abuse from a spectator at Anfield on Friday night. Liverpool won the Premier League season's opening game 4-2 after goals from Hugo Ekitike, Cody Gakpo, Federico Chiesa and Mohamed Salah, on a night full of tributes for Diogo Jota after his tragic death in July. But the match was marred by the incident involving Semenyo, who immediately reported what he had heard to match officials. The referee, Anthony Taylor, halted play, calling Liverpool head coach Arne Slot and Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola together with the fourth official Farai Hallam to tell them that Semenyo had reported a racist comment from a fan at the front of the Main Stand. Police escorted an individual out of the stadium, and also visited the officials' dressing room at half-time. The club are also investigating. Semenyo not only continued the game but scored two goals to haul Bournemouth level in the second half, before Chiesa and Salah scored late on to earn the champions all three points. 'It is totally unacceptable,' said Smith, speaking to Sky Sports about the incident. 'I'm kind of in shock it happened in this day and age. I don't know how Ant has carried on playing and come up with his goals. He's a little bit down. Something needs to be done. Taking a knee has taken no effect.' Smith praised Semenyo's calm handling of the situation. 'I wanted him to react [after scoring], that's what I'd have done, I'd have gone straight over there. It shows what kind of man he is to report it to the ref and carry on. Fair play to Ant. I said to the ref I wanted him removed immediately but the police went and sorted it. The Liverpool players were very supportive to Ant and the rest of the team. 'I'm just so angry. We've had discussions with the Premier League about it so they have been taking it seriously. I don't know what else we can do. We've been doing it for a long time now and no one is getting it. I just feel sorry for Ant and he's had to take that. The whole country is watching and it's shocking.' Iraola said: 'The referee explained to both managers straight away the situation. It is a big shame we have to start talking about these things. The Liverpool manager and the players, they feel it the same. Everyone understands that these things have to be out of everywhere but especially football. 'Now we have to go again to talk to the police and the officials. I think for sure he [Semenyo ] will have it in his head [now] and it shouldn't be like this.' Slot added: 'It is obvious we do not want this in football. We definitely don't want this at Anfield. Unfortunately it is part of the story because we should talk about the great tribute for Diogo Jota. This should never happen in football, let alone Anfield.'

Liverpool-Bournemouth match paused after Semenyo subjected to racist abuse
The opening match of the Premier League between Liverpool and Bournemouth briefly stopped on Friday after Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo reported being racially abused by a spectator inside Anfield. In the 28th minute with the score at 0-0, referee Anthony Taylor talked to Semenyo, who is Black, while Liverpool was preparing to take a corner. Taylor then ran over to the sideline and spoke to both coaches, Liverpool's Arne Slot and Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola. After also talking to the captains, play resumed about two minutes later. Semenyo's complaint was the reason for the stoppage, the Premier League confirmed to the Associated Press. Bournemouth players consoled Semenyo, who played the full game and scored both of his team's goals in a 4-2 loss. Iraola said the person who abused Semenyo was identified. 'It's a shame because a really great game of football, the first game of the season with everyone watching, and we have to be talking about this thing still today,' Iraola said. 'We should be past this stage but there's still people who don't behave correctly. It's a shame because every step you collectively do forward, these things lose a lot of power.' Bournemouth captain Adam Smith said he was 'in shock' and full of admiration for Semenyo, a 25-year-old Ghana international. 'I don't know how Ant's played on, to be honest, and come up with those goals,' Smith said. 'It's totally unacceptable and I just feel sorry for Ant. He's a little bit down, obviously.' Smith said he asked Taylor to remove the person who abused Semenyo from the stadium immediately. 'But he said we have to go through a process, and that the police will go and sort it,' Smith said. 'And to be fair, the Liverpool players were supportive toward Antoine and the rest of the team. I think it was handled in the right way.' An anti-discrimination message was read out to the crowd inside Anfield after the halftime whistle. The Premier League said it will investigate the incident and 'offer our full support to the player and both clubs.' 'Racism has no place in our game, or anywhere in society,' the competition said. 'We will continue to work with stakeholders and authorities to ensure our stadiums are an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.' The Football Association said it was 'very concerned about the allegation of discrimination from an area of the crowd." 'Incidents of this nature have no place in our game,' the FA added, 'and we will work closely with the match officials, the clubs and the relevant authorities to establish the facts and ensure the appropriate action is taken.' ___
