Poland say defender Kamil Glik accused of
racism by EnglandSpokesperson for Poland says ‘we deny any wrongdoing’
England have lodged a complaint that Kyle Walker was racially abused by the Poland defender Kamil Glik. The flashpoint came at the end of the first half of the stormy 1-1
World Cup qualifier in Warsaw on Wednesday. The Polish
Football Association has denied the allegation.
The players of both teams came together after England had defended a free-kick just before half-time with Harry Maguire taking exception to something that happened. The England defender had to be held back by teammates. Television footage showed Glik pinching Walker on the neck. Glik and Maguire were booked.
