FC Bayern against hate online: Sané, Müller and Goretzka shake with a video message

"Warning.

Real hate comments are made,” says the beginning of a video that FC Bayern published on Twitter on “Day Against Racism” (March 21).

What follows is really violent and hard to bear.

"Red German, du N****," says Bayern star Leroy Sané into the camera and shakes his head in disbelief.

The swear word is accompanied by a harsh beep.

"It used to be Mia San Mia," says Thomas Müller, followed by Leon Goretzka: "Today only foreigners" and "You fags".
