Major League Soccer says it’s investigating allegations a player made a racist remark during Saturday’s New York Red Bulls and San Jose Earthquakes match. During an interview on “The Aftershock” podcast after the match, Earthquakes forward Jeremy Ebobisse said he heard a player on the opposing team make a racist remark. Ebobisse said his team continued to play because the Red Bulls player who he alleges made the remark said it wasn’t directed at anyone in particular.
” In a statement, MLS said “an investigation into this matter will begin promptly. Further information will be provided upon completion of that investigation.” MLS said the alleged incident occurred during the 54th minute of the match. New York said it is taking the allegations seriously, promptly reported them to MLS, and is cooperating with the league. “The New York Red Bulls do not condone any form of harassment or discrimination,” the club said in a statement.
