Ghanaian midfielder Sulley Muntari is the latest international footballer to endure racist abuse on the pitch. Muntari, who plays for Italian Serie A team Pescara, asked the referee to stop the game at Cagliari when the abuse became too much. But he was instead given a yellow card for dissent. Muntari confronted Cagliari fans, shouting "this is my colour" before walking off the pitch. What needs to be done to rid football of racism?
