Most of the comments came from the middle East and India when they did the audit.
You're always a winner..............no, they just lost.

This has to stop. All black players should just walk away. Once you put england jersey you will be loved by England fan. What about if Saka is not football player/celebrity...any human should not be subjected to racist attack. Full Stop!
Come on it's 2021 for god sake. British people and their English language makes me sick!
Saka doesn't need to apologize to anyone here or anywhere, that is football, how many country's have experienced the same? But the fans don't get aggressive and racist, iam, proud of all three of you , and you do England well👍💪😘
These three r heroes.xx
Yeah ,but Southgate put these three up ,Southgate / diversitygate ,is a millionaire Manager ,he is paid very well to manage so manage Southgate ,no but you didn't manage ,so all these stupid comments are null and void ?

@@alex-oc6798 It's not though. There are thousands of documented racist comments as well as physical attacks on Black and Italian people in the UK after this final. People need to get their heads right.
@@alex-oc6798 what is true?
The worst thing about this is how predictable it was. Saka is legitimately one of the best young players in the world and England are lucky to have him.
Most fans appreciate him and his talent and it's a loud minority of idiots who make it so depressing for the rest of us. Anyone can miss a penalty. Let alone under that sort of pressure.
Players shouldn't have to be bracing themselves for the racist backlash if they miss when they step up to the penalty spot for England. That is disgraceful.
@TACMAL Just take a moment to consider that your argument is essentially that English people aren't racist it's all because of foreigners.
Just let that percolate in your mind for a few moments.
I also find it painfully naive that you think a lot of overseas supporters were cheering for England. Maybe in Canada and New Zealand.
I knew from Saka missed that penalty and England lost the game racism would be the next main topic!
Me too, Safegate had 3 black penalty takers because of Blm 🤣🤣😂🤣
Racism in 2021. Shame on you England
@@casieluiry9296 I’m black✊🏿.. Name calling happens, get over it

Bless him, he shouldn't be apologising. These racists forget if it wasnt for him and Raheem coaxing the ball to score with the Denmark game, England may never had even got into the final. So ungrateful these people.
1966 . . . . any non-Brits on the Team .. ?
You didn't let anyone down, my little friend. You should be proud. ❤️
Well said, Bukayo Saka. Do not let the hate break you. Stand stall. Love always wins. Continue with love in your heart.
Greetings to you melanie
My heart broke when he started crying because he felt so guilty. He didn't lose the game for England. Fans are just mad and disappointed so they'll say the most horrible things.
That is NO excuse for those RACIST white people
Very powerful Saka! Amazing attitude! That is sportsmanship!
Thism lad is pure gold, it hurt more than losing to see him crying like that
YES YES WELL SAID SAKA IS PURE GOLD
Right now he is alliminium behave he lost because his stupid manager should never have picked him ,there is wisdom in age ,Southgate is useless
@@wendyjones1369 perhaps you are the obvious useless one here
Rate him so highly, wonderful human and such a great talent on the pitch. Nothing but love for the three lions 🦁
Incredible player. Such a talented well educated man. England are lucky to have such him
@TACMAL I agree, it's hopelessly ridiculous for Italians to accuse us of racism when they are renowned for being a highly racist country.
@TACMAL are u serious ? Did you not see the rashford .painting? Or the black people getting attacked in London ?

@@wendyjones1369
It happens.
If Rashford and Sancho had scored theirs, Saka won't Play. Saka step up when all the old guys failed to do so.
I knew something was going to happen after the last 3 missed those shots.

He never left!
Great player and totally key in England getting to the final. I urge him to take England or club level penalties soon as possible. One good thing that has come out of all this is that with any luck Saka will copy Southgate and go into managing England.
Im from italy and i love the all england team and saka keep ur head up bro your strong and dont give up playing football😭
Love those lads, they're blooming incredible
Really , WHY ?
Why..?
Troll comment ‘love those lads’ AI
they are LOSERS . . . . and not even British never mind English .
To be fair. I think it’s time for social media platforms to require users to identify themselves . These communication channels must not continue as they are. Dreadful.
'Do you have a license of that opinion, sonny Jim?'
We don't want dictatorial social media like in China
Well, all they have to do is ban certain words from posting interestingly there are certain words on RUclips that if included in a post it won't post yet racial slurs do post. Got to wonder if they profit and engagement goes up with controversial events. I build apps and can do it on an app surely million dollsr companies can do it with their algorithms and checks. There is no instance where the N word is appropriate so just ban it from the platform and all alternative versions
I'm a Millwall supporter, when we look back at Saka on missing the penalty..... Its the minute, hour, day, SAKA Became a man, I'm no Woke but I'm proud of Saka & our team. Saka will some day bring home the World Cup. May God Bless you Saka.
Respect for saka from 🇮🇪
Nuff love and support Bukayo you'll get through the storm strong
I'm crying 😢 😢 such a wonderful Boy Saka ❤
Keep strong, Saka. There is hate and racism in every race and religion.
The vast majority of us white English are very proud of you, where we finish and what you represent.
Keep working hard and come back stronger for YOUR country in the world cup.

FEW FANS SHOWED THAT! Not England! This is probably the only country with the largest percentage of people of different colour who are couples. Every 5th couple you meet on the street is a white English woman with a black guy and every 10th is a white guy with black girl!!
really how many black players are in the italy side?

@M R yee
@M R yes didn't u see him?
@M R One of the (probably unexpectedly) standout players of England and the Euros
Saka, we salute you and congratulate you for being a man for stepping up to take the most difficult penalty. Looks like there are not many men in the English squad which hence explained the lack of courage when playing in the final. Had the English team played attacking football, not only would it have given the supporters a memorable night, but it would have had uplifted the spirit of English footballers after so many years of failure. Well done Saka.
No room for racism 🌈
Please do not associate this with sick evil practice please change your life
Former Arsenal man Alex Iwobi doesn't have to deal with this crap, at least not on International duty, his goal celebration against England years ago spoke volumes.
Love that he stood up and believed himself. Love that
Keep your head up saka . You are loved by everyone ❤❤ beautiful words from you . Respect always proud of you
Love always win, I love you saka
Wow this guy has a big heart inspite the hate he still believes in kindness 💙❤ that's why you will be our favourite of all time you made us proud .
What a star. I know he could be on the team that finally brings it home.
If they are been abused racially is their fault, they chose that, they could have played for their own countries instead of where they were born. I don't see this situation ever changing

@@wendyjones1369 You sound weak racist.
The ONLY way you can stop online hate on social media is that all user accounts must provide formal identification (eg passport, driving license etc) and proof of address.

Sadly, 19 years old is not old enough to heap pressure on for a vital penalty, but it's definitely old enough to know that England can be an extremely racist place.
😔
When will this end?
England is by far one of the least racist societies to hace ever existed. No other nation has done more to bring more equal rights to everyone

@@harrymail7 no the country itself isn't racist, but the institution is for sure. England is like a wolf but in sheep's clothing.

@@harrymail7 its not untrue.
I said "can be". I was quite precise with my words, perhaps you aren't so precise with your reading.
This has gone way past twitter.
Black people were being attacked after the match. A black man was thrown in the Thames. Many were assaulted. I know some young guys who went to watch the football who said their friends got caught up in it.
Some people like to downplay the issue or pretend it doesn't exist all together.
All of these are attempts against removing the problem. Why work out how to remove something that isn't a big issue? They are lies. EVERYBODY knows it's a big issue, from Gary Neville, to Gareth Southgate to the players involved.
@@harrymail7 that is slightly different. Yes I agree that England has many positives, but the fact there are people like you who feel more motivated to insist their country has no race problem than to help cure the obvious race problem that abuses our own national players is definitely a negative.
In England you have a mix of races.
Also some horrible racists.
And then many racism deniers.
2012 quarter finals Young, and Cole misses there penalties also against Italy. Its unfortunate for this players.
