Ghanaian international Kevin-Prince Boateng has been invited
to the United Nations International Day for the Elimination of Racial
Discrimination which will be held in March later year.
The 25-year-old walked off the pitch during a match at lower
division side Pro Patria after he was subjected to racial abuse from home fans,
Boateng’s team-mates followed and the match was abandoned.
AC Milan escaped punishment on Tuesday from Series A disciplinary commission; however, they were told that it
was wrong to abandon a friendly despite Boeteng being subjected to racist
chants.The commissioner
ruled on Tuesday that his actions broke league rules but would not be punished.
According to Millian:"The event will take place at the
National Building in Geneva and will concentrate on racism in sport."
