The 2: 2 summary between Milan and the Red Star Belgrade (Sport 1)

The war of words between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and LeBron James, the two sports giants, continues.

The AC Milan star criticized the Lakers star and claimed he should stop his politics and institutionalized racism in the United States and concentrate on sports, James reacted sharply, saying "funny that it came from him, because this is the same one who in 2018 said he encountered racism in Sweden".



Today (Tuesday) came the reply of Zlatan who spoke at a press conference ahead of a local song festival and addressed this issue: "Sport unites the world, politics divides it. Our job is to unite the world by doing what we do best. Athletes should be athletes, "Politicians should be involved in politics, not the athletes."

Zlatan also referred to the media confrontation and racist outbursts towards Romulo Lukaku and said: "I have no personal problem with him. What happened on the pitch, remains on the pitch."



As I recall, James responded to Zlatan with a detailed explanation of his worldview when he said, "I will never be silent about wrong things happening around me," he clarified.

"I oppose social injustice, racism, all the bad things that are going on around my community. I grew up there, I know what they are going through, I know what they need, and I know they need their voice heard. I am the one who makes their voice heard, I put a spotlight on "All kinds of things are happening in our country. There is no way I will concentrate solely on sports, because I understand how things work and how strong my voice is."
