    Michy Batshuayi hits back at racist fans

    Borussia Dortmund striker, Michy Batshuayi has accused Atalanta fans of racist abuse, after his team's 1-1 draw against them in the Europa League in Lombardy. The on-loan Chelsea striker, Michy took to Twitter to express his displeasure. In the post, he mentioned that 'monkey noises' were being hurled by the supporters of the Italian side.

    Batshuayi silences racist fans in style

    Atalanta President Antonio Percassi apologizes to Batshuayi

    "I'll be honest, I didn't hear them. If they did happen, then I am very sad and absolutely apologise to Batshuayi. This should never happen," said Antonio Percassi.

    Dortmund beat Atalanta 4-3 on aggregate

    Borussia Dortmund progressed to the last 16 of the Europa League, thanks to the sublime goal by substitute Marcel Schmelzer. Marcel scored with 7 minutes remaining on the clock to send the German side through with a 4-3 aggregate score. The Bundesliga giants are now favourites to go all the way in the Europa League.

    Atalanta fans have been accused of racial abuse even before

    This is not the first time Atalanta fans have been accused of racial abuse. In January, the club was fined and saw their stands closed for a match due to the racist chants against Napoli's Senegalese defender, Kalidou Koulibaly.

    Batshuayi is proving Chelsea manager Conte wrong

    Batshuayi, who has had his opportunities limited due to the stiff competition at Chelsea, has hit the ground running at Dortmund since his loan move in January. The Belgian striker has scored 5 goals in his first 3 appearances including the crucial injury-time winner against Atalanta to make it 3-2 in the first leg.
