Inter Miami players and head coach Phil Neville alleged Sunday that D.C. United forward Taxi Fountas directed a racial slur at one of their players during an MLS game between the two teams.
The incident occurred during the second half of a 3-2 Miami win, and led to a five-minute stoppage in play, during which referee Ismail Elfath initiated MLS's protocol for on-field allegations of racial abuse.
D.C. United coach Wayne Rooney, who pulled Fountas from the game almost immediately after the incident, said that"there was a complaint, which I’m sure will get investigated. Not much more I can say.”The initial confrontation between the two players occurred late in the 59th minute. Fountas challenged Lowe for the ball as Lowe was passing back to his own goalkeeper. After he'd released the ball, Lowe appeared to raise his elbow.
A few second later, Lowe appeared to be explaining to other D.C. United players that Fountas had called him a"n*****."
