While playing for his team against Villareal, a spectator threw a banana at him as he tried to take a corner kick. What do you think Dani did? He casually picked up the banana, peeled it, eat the banana, threw away the peel, and then completed the kick...
This move has left many people in shock and Dani is getting a lot of praise for how he handled it.
This is not the first time the Brazilian footballer will face racism on the pitch. He complained about
it last year after being taunted by monkey chants from
sections of the crowd during a match at Real Madrid.
Racism in football is becoming an issue in Europe and enough is not being done to stop it. Dani is a star! Hopefully, he made the person who threw the banana feel like stupid!
lol! wayray boy
ReplyDeleteInjustice! see What Happened to Oluwafemi in the hands of Two Naval officers in front of Silverbird Galleria (Photos)
Racism is even worse in Nigeria. People will judge u for tribe u come from, religion, qualification, color of skin, and even for being poor or having some money in ur pocket.
Deletemonkey somebody! LOL

ReplyDeleteI hate it when ignorant stupid people discriminate others based on race, gender, sexuality. The world is round bitches get over your ignorant asses,we are all equal.
ReplyDeleteWhat's doing this white people sef.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very mature of way of handling an issue thats capable of making one angry. Make fun of it and make the person feel like a fool.Good one alves
ReplyDeleteHate and ignorance is the cause for discrimination in this world. Whites think they are better than blacks, straight people think they are better than gay people, men think they are better than women. All this stupidity is a product of ignorance, enlighten your selves biko.
ReplyDeleteI like his maturity
ReplyDeleteShock waves flowed down my spine watching Alves yesterday.
ReplyDeleteNot withstanding they were leading us 2:1 he Never let all That get to him.
And after eating the banana he went ahead to give to crosses that resulted in goals.

DeleteRacism is so popular in spain russia but dani response was in a very mature and professional way and made me fall in love with him. Shame on the perpetrator. Dani, thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteMaturity...
ReplyDeleteDani, your action has humiliated the racist and i believe whoever threw that banana will not try it again. Sometimes, we need to make light of such mockery to humiliate the mocker.
ReplyDeleteFoolish ignorant white morons I like what he did, he's a big guy
ReplyDeleteLinda please correct yourself. He 'ate' not eat.
ReplyDeleteone million likes for that action.
He has started a movement.
ReplyDeleteThe best pictures from today are Suarez (yes him) eating a banana in a picture with Coutinho and the Prime Minister of Italy and the Italian coach Prandelli (yes Italians) eating bananas too.
Always knew Alves was zany but this was totally off the chains. Brilliant.
Lolz....Vealareal fans were angry nah, VealReal were leadin 2nil,den barca did a nice come back,d match ended. VealReal 2 : 3 Barca!!!! So wat do u expect? Lmfao
ReplyDeleteAlso, that fan was disrespectful because the club is in mourning. He's been fished out and banned from attending games for life. He may face a court case too.
ReplyDeleteDis is funny. . Me like wat he did
ReplyDeletei love this guy...i dey gbadun am...
ReplyDeleteFrom Nyemar and i quote'' We are all monkeys'' white monkeys up against d black monkeys=monkeys vs monkeys

ReplyDeleteI luv dat guy for dat!!!
ReplyDelete.....and so the white 200m sprinter was accused of racism when he said to the black 100m sprinter,"We are not of the same race" **Punch lines** Dani Alves should becareful next time cuz that could have been a poison.

ReplyDeleteLol I luv the way he handled it.
ReplyDeleteLol I like d way he art @ them
ReplyDeleteRacism can never be completely stamped out from European football, but if more people gave it the kinda classic response Alves gave last night; making them look stupid, I think it will stem it down a whole lot.
ReplyDeletePoisoned banana? What a risky way to respond
ReplyDeleteGreat response....!; like sth I'd do.
ReplyDeleteLeaves them racists wondering, confused.
* My R1.50c comment *
Nice one Dani, when life gives you lemon you make lemonade...
ReplyDeleteDani Alves has impressed me with his maturity.
ReplyDeleteDani Alves has impressed me with his maturity.
ReplyDeleteLinda becoming an issue ke , it has always been an issue . The ony place that is okay is Britain all of those other European countries are full of racist ignorant idiots , especially Italians and Eastern Europeans awon oloshi . And linda it is ate banana
ReplyDeleteBest act ever Dani.....make d racist look stupid.
ReplyDeletethat was the right thing to do
ReplyDeleteLinda please make the neccessary corrections to the grammar, asap!! #petpeeve. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThat's how to do it.
ReplyDelete...And Barca still defeated them yesterday.
ReplyDeletefeel stupid or feel like stupid Linda?...
ReplyDeleteKudos Dani
ReplyDeleteI love you #kiss
Correct guy! Ave been saying this- if someone calls u a monkey call him a baboon chikena! No b d same mouth una get? The earlier Blacks start treating racism with the disdain it deserves and ignoring ignorant people who propagate such ideals the better. When they realize we are not bothered by their inane remarks n behavior they will stop.
ReplyDeleteThis continues 'cos the football body usually takes little or no actions on such cases..stiff and strict sactions need to be placed on offenders and even on the club so they know how to caution their supporters...
ReplyDeletewatching the game I was like what, then he pick up the banana and eat it, very classy, making the idiot looks exactly as an idiot... but Linda is like your blog has been hack, always re-directly me to another site or trying to install a program on my system,
ReplyDeleteNyc reply
ReplyDeletewow.lord pls teach me such humility.bless u sir
ReplyDeleteBrilliant Response from Dani.
ReplyDeleteCorrect guy!
ReplyDeleteMaturity and wisdom blend together. Somethings money can't buy and can't be gotten in the market. Coolest guy, thumbs up.
ReplyDeletehe day hungry ni
ReplyDeleteThe fan that threw the banana has been banned for life.
ReplyDelete#weAreAllMonkeys harsh tag has been used to support him by his colleagues on instagram
ReplyDeleteyou know the irony they have accepted gay and lesbians but racism has not changed .
ReplyDeleteHe ate the banana not eat it,correct that...that's the spirit man good play.
ReplyDeleteme i would just say, alves went too far tho, he shud have just kicked the banana away.cuz only monkeys eat bananas that are thrown at them. All the same i praise his courage.
ReplyDeleteDani was very mature with that move. When life gives you lemon make lemonade, when Fan throws banana, Please chop the banana.
ReplyDeleteI love dis guy 2 death! He just gave me anoda gud reason 2 kip loving him. Kudos 2 U my ganja man!
ReplyDeleteGod please make me this monkey they called him,make me that known monkey that is known.let me be that monkey that can get my family and friends their need.let me be the monkey that fly and drive pass those that throw banana and other things in same car that Peter brought in Jesus name.hit me with that monkeyship right now o.
ReplyDeleteMy Dani My Dani......ur a man
ReplyDeletestale gist... i watched it and just shook my head. STOP RACISM BLACKS AGAINST WHITE AND WHITES AGAINST BLACK....#WeAreAllMonkeys
ReplyDeleteLol! atleast its not poisoned. If that banana was thrown in Nija....first thought will be...ndia anwam!!
ReplyDeleteThank God the banana wasn't posioned ohhhhhhhhh....Please no other player should eat any banana thrown in ohhhhhhhhh
ReplyDeleteAs a Madridstar (Madrid Fan), I'll say that that was foolish on the part of the fan who threw the banana but great response by Alves. iHala Madrid!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dani Alves - Walking out of the Pitch, which was the norm all this while was apparently our show of cowardice. Eating the Banana is a stunning display of bravado. You have revealed the 'hero' within u and us all. We are probably one step away from a major Break though.
ReplyDeleteDumb move! What if the banana was laced with poison??
