should he really be marking their main goal threat at corners in the first place, though?

Why shouldn’t he? He’s the perfect person to mark him - unless you’re saying he’s poor defensively. Your two centre backs should be marking their strongest headers / standing in the dangerous area to attack the ball.

A more experienced player, imo.

Alfredo Morelos: Hearts investigate claims of racism towards Rangers striker

claims that Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos was racially abused in Sunday's Scottish Premiership draw.

The Colombian was allegedly targeted as he celebrated his equaliser in front of the Hearts supporters at Tynecastle.

Police Scotland say they are unaware of any complaints, with the only arrest made being for a separate incident.

The club is aware of an incident of alleged racism and is currently investigating it," read a statement.

"It goes without saying that Heart of Midlothian Football Club utterly condemns any form of racism and any individuals found guilty of such an offence will face an indefinite ban from Tynecastle Park."

The incident comes at the end of a week scarred by several incidents of racism in football.

England's Euro 2020 qualifier in Bulgaria last Monday was halted twice as fans were warned about racist behaviour, including Nazi salutes and monkey chanting.

And an FA Cup match between Haringey Borough and Yeovil Town was abandoned on Saturday amid reports of racial abuse by fans.

Furthermore, Bristol City are investigating reports of racist language being used by their fans during their Championship game at Luton.

Not proven imo.

I watched it a dozen times or so and still can make out exactly what the boy has said. Definitely a “fucking something b*****d” but there looks to be more than one syllable in the word before b*****d.

If anyone deserves to be banned it’s the wifey next to baldyboy videoing Morelos celebrating with great delight.

Unfortunately, it looks like it could be: "ya f*ckin' dirty black b*stard" but it is inconclusive as he is obscured midway through his rant. The word 'orange' could be in there too when I watch it again. Who knows for sure?

I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. Poor b*****d will be hounded by Rangers fans now regardless of whether or not he is guilty.

I'm not sure, think they might have sympathy with him, they regard opposition players celebrating in front of them as a declaration of war and bigotry.. he did seem to be goading them too, again the zombies have very strong feelings on that matter too.
