Mikel Chasing Ball Against Juve |
Nigerian Chelsea International, Mikel Obi has deleted his Twitter account after he was racially abused for 'costing' Chelsea victory in the opening match of their Champions League defence against Juventus Wednesday Sept. 19th.
The match which ended 2-2, saw Chelsea fans blaming Mikel for giving the ball
away just ten minutes before time and also not preventing the equalizing
goal.
After the end of the game, Chelsea fans racially abused Mikel on
his Twitter account @Mikel12Official, prompting the Super Eagles
midfielder to delete the account which he set up just a few months back.
We've been made aware of racist tweets targeted at Mikel which are totally unacceptable, disgusting and abhorrent. We've informed the police and support taking the strongest possible action."
