Finnish football player Glen Chamber was repeatedly stabbed at a stadium with mostly schoolchildren in Prague on Thursday.
The shout took place in his club’s Glasgow Rangers Europe League match against Sparta Prague on Thursday night.
Last season, Kamara fell victim to racist exploitation by a defender Ondrej Kudela Slavia from Prague — neighbors of the city of Sparta — which led to the European Football Association (UEFA) getting 10 bans on the Czechs.
Kamara was banned from playing in three matches when UEFA found him guilty of Kudela being beaten in a tunnel after the incident.
The match between Sparta and Rangers was to be played behind closed doors because Sparta had been accused of racism involving the French club of Monaco. Aurelius Tchouameni earlier this season.
However, UEFA decided that around 10,000 schoolchildren – along with a small number of accompanying adults – could attend.
Several media outlets, e.g. Caretaker and Sky Sports, said that there was a loud shout every time Kamara touched the ball.
Chamber Attorney, Aamer Anwar, after the game, issued a statement criticizing the Czech club for the behavior of fans towards a Finnish player.
"This evening should be a confusion for the Czech side that even though fans were banned, it still mattered little that the stadium was full of 10,000 schoolchildren," the statement said.
"A huge portion of these kids threw Glen’s every touch of the ball along with all the other black players to the Rangers. This evening shows once again that Prague has a serious problem with racism and, as usual, UEFA is nowhere to be found."
The story continues after the picture.
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard told the post-match press conference that he didn’t notice any distress during the game, but explained he was focused on coaching the team and making tactical changes.
"If they targeted Glen, it’s very disappointing," Gerrard said. "If they are facts and that is the truth, I am very disappointed – but I am not surprised."
Gerrard added that more needs to be done to combat racism in sport.
"Not just me, everyone around the world is calling for bigger and more extreme punishments for racism. It must be destroyed," he said. "But until future forces do more and take it more seriously, we are going to address these issues for a long time."
The chamber was booked in the first half of the game and received a second yellow card, marking a red and a rejection from the field with 15 minutes left. In the end, Sparta won the match 1-0.
