New Zealand Football have challenged Fifa to do more to tackle racism after the men’s national team abandoned Monday’s friendly with Qatar in protest at “significant racist abuse” directed at one of their players going unpunished by the officials.
The alleged incident comes after comments last week from Gianni Infantino that there should be “zero tolerance” for racism, with the Fifa president insisting that Fifa matches should be halted by referees if there is any discrimination.
