Rashford post on Instagram after receiving racist abuse

Marcus Rashford was subject to racist abuse after missing a penalty in the 2-1 defeat against Crystal Palace.

The Manchester United striker says he was ‘reluctant to log back in’ after receiving such vile abuse, and nobody can blame him.

It’s the second incident of this kind involving a United player this season.

Paul Pogba received similar abuse on Twitter following his missed penalty against Wolves last Monday.

United fans responded by bringing an anti-racism flag to Old Trafford at the weekend, though that didn’t stop the keyboard warriors from spreading their bile online.

Rashford has uploaded a message to Instagram addressing the situation, citing Unicef’s Water Walk campaign.
