Sky Sports Football Media has come under fire for not including Ademola Lookman on their victory post on X. The sports channel made the post on 22nd of May to celebrate the victory of Atalanta who won 3-0 against Bayer Leverkusen in the finals in Dublin.
The sports channel was accused of side-lining African Players when showcasing victorious players. X users accused the platform of doing same to Osihmen who secured a win for Napoli during Serie A.
Danee in his X handle tweeted in response to the post “It’s Sky sport guys, don’t be surprised”
@youngemmanuelJ also tweeted on X that “Same thing happened when Napoli won the league last season”
The British media were called out for being biased and unfair in showcasing the victories of players from other descent. Ademola Lookman had scored all three goals which secured the victory for Atalanta.
Fortunate_Official on X tweeted that “So you guys don’t rate this player at all, dude just gave the club a hat trick in a major UEFA competition”
Lord Drey also tweeted that “Racism is systematic now. Whyte folks can’t beat the allegations. They will always h8te coloured people. But we see you lookman.”
@UtdEIIis tweeted “Why on earth would you not include the man that scored a hattrick in the final to win Atalanta their first major trophy in 60 years???”
Sewing Machine tweeted “The person who scored the hat-trick and won the MOTM didn’t get the front page all because of???”
