"Discrimination kills" : Eric Di Meco makes a huge rant after the boycott of the players of the campaign against homophobia

While several Ligue 1 players boycotted the campaign against homophobia, Eric Di Meco wanted to send a message.

Yet another unanimously accepted campaign. The league organized a campaign on the occasion of the 35th day of the championship and on the occasion of the World Day Against Homophobia. 1st and 2nd league players especially flocked to the colors of the rainbow. But a few players, such as Donatien Gomis (Guingamp), Mostafa Mohamed (Nantes) or Zakaria Aboukhlal (Toulouse), refused to participate in weekend matches to indicate their opposition to the campaign against homophobia. It’s a problematic choice, according to Eric Di Meco, who spoke on the show Monday, May 15. Rothen ignitesat RMC. “Today we realized that there is a big problem in France in general but in football in particular. Discrimination kills. People die.”laments in the preface. “We understand that the case defended is not progressing, but regressing. There was one player identified (in 2022) and in other years he was supposedly injured again, he is Ghana Gueye. But now there are five people who did not play. Next year it will be just as much, or even a little more. I bet “The consultant worries.

He believes that some positions such as coach Eric Roy or Bruno Genesio, who wonder about the importance of organizing a special day to fight homophobia, also raise questions. “I’m not sure that significant work has been done. Let’s face it, there is something wrong with that in football. I don’t want to believe it if someone explains to me that there is no homosexuality in football. There are no players that show up in football, or because there is a huge problem with that, although it’s very rare.”, regrets Di Meco. assures that the problem must be “Settled at the root, at the level of children” and we have to explain it to them “When they’re going to wear a rainbow-numbered shirt, they’re asked not to parade for gay pride, but to say they don’t want a child killed for being gay.”.
