Racism in Soccer Continues Unabated as Federations Fail to Act

Racism remains rampant in soccer across the globe, as evidenced by recent abuse directed at Real Madrid's Vinícius Júnior.
Federations have been slow to punish racist behavior, despite having the authority to do so.
Anti-racism measures are seen as ineffective, as fines and slogans do little to stop recurring incidents.
Black players often feel powerless when faced with racist abuse from fans, as authorities fail to act.
Stronger action, including harsher punishments and education, is desperately needed to combat the issue.
