Agf faced racist abuse during their match against FC Midtjylland in April. Professor Nicolaj Sivan Holst questions the penalty decisions and calls for a change in club practices.

What happened?

Agf had several cases of racist abuse from spectators in the previous Superliga season. It was not only Agf that faced racist abuse, but also FC Midtjylland and Brøndby IF.

Why is it important for Agf?

Agf has penalized individuals with two-year stadium bans for racist abuse against players from FC Midtjylland and Brøndby IF. However, Professor Nicolaj Sivan Holst believes that this is not enough and that club practices need to change.

What's next?

The East Jutland Police have on their own initiative reported the three individuals identified for racist abuse. Nicolaj Sivan Holst urges clubs to report individuals who commit racist offenses.
