It should be noted that black players who did not score on penalty kicks in the Euro 2020 final are facing abuse on social media. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson also tweeted: "England players should be hailed as heroes, not racially discriminated against on social media, those responsible should be ashamed of what they did.

The Football Association has condemned the biased attitude. Taking note of the incidents, the Metropolitan Police said: "We have learned of many racist comments on social media about some footballers after the Euro Cup final. Harassment is not acceptable, it will not be tolerated and there will be further investigations.
