London (United Kingdom), August 14 (LaPresse) – Tottenham has strongly condemned the racist posts targeting Mathys Tel on social media after yesterday’s UEFA Super Cup final, which was won by Paris Saint-Germain against the 'Spurs'. The French forward, a key player for Tottenham, was insulted for missing one of two penalty kicks that handed the trophy to PSG (after extra time, the score was 2-2). "We are disgusted by the racist abuse Mathys Tel received on social media following last night's defeat in the UEFA Super Cup," Tottenham wrote in a statement. "Mathys showed courage and bravery by stepping up to take a penalty, and those who abuse him are nothing but cowards hiding behind usernames and anonymous profiles to express their abhorrent opinions." The club also assured that it would cooperate with authorities and social platforms to take "the strongest possible action against any individual we are able to identify." "We stand by you, Mathys," Tottenham added.
