Football international Nadiem Amiri has made a nasty insult public on social media. Following his goal in FSV Mainz 05's 1-0 win at Dynamo Dresden in the first round of the DFB Cup, the 28-year-old was abused in the strongest possible terms. Amiri, who had decided the match with a remarkable free-kick goal, reacted stunned: "No more words for people like that," the 28-year-old wrote in an Instagram story about the content of the message.
It is not the first racist insult on the first cup weekend of the season. There were also incidents in the stadiums or on social media around the matches in Leipzig, Potsdam and Essen.
