A lot of people are outraged that the fans boo an anti-racist gesture.

I suspect they are not booing the gesture but the virtue-signalling nature of it.

The audience pays to watch football. Not to see footballers condemning inequality, while taking multi-million pound salaries.

[what Americans call soccer]
