Manchester United's Edinson Cavani has been given a three-match ban and a £100,000 fine for a social media post containing a Spanish phrase that is offensive in some contexts
What is going on in this world?
Cavani gets a 3 match ban and is forced to apologise because he called a friend of his "Negrita" in a post.
F.ridiculous. It means little black one in Spanish and is f.all to do with race or colour, it is a common Latin nickname.
It is also the name of my favourite chocolate biscuit....

It is the name of a rock band in Italy....

The name of a brand of Rum

...and a common nickname between close friends. All my wife's close friends call her Negra or Negrita because of her hair (which is black).
Save us from virtue-signalling pillocks.
Certainly he should have been pulled to one side and helped to understand, but a three match ban??
FFS.
