Recall that the egregious incident occurred during a live broadcast on the international TV channel beINSPORTS of yesterday's match of the 23rd round of the French Championship Clermont - Marseille (0:2).
At the end of the first half of this meeting, one of the commentators called the Ukrainian midfielder of Marseille Ruslan Malinovsky a Russian. Moreover, this cannot be definitely called a reservation, because after a few seconds the same commentator, reacting to the Ukrainian’s blow, said: “He sent the ball back to Moscow.”
Malinovsky reacted to the scandalous comment of American TV people. “Who commented on this match?” the Ukrainian wrote on Twitter. Malinowski later tagged commentator Phil Shane, but there has been no response or apology yet.
