Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku was targeted by “disgusting” racist abuse before he was sent off for celebrating scoring against Juventus in the Copa Italia semifinal, his representatives said, in the latest allegation of racism to hit Italian football.
Lukaku scored a stoppage-time penalty which secured Inter a 1-1 draw in Tuesday’s first leg but was then shown a second yellow card after the Belgian striker put a finger to his lips in front of home supporters in Turin.
