Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez has been accused of racism after completely blanking a group of black lads who were begging for his shirt after the win at Crystal Palace last night, and instead taking his time to ensure the item got to a middle-aged white man stood behind them.
Are social media users reading too much into it? See for yourself:

Incredible irony accusing someone of racism while suggesting all Argentinians are racists, but that’s Twitter for you.
Of course, if you take a closer look at the clip, there’s nothing racist about Enzo Fernandez’s behaviour at all, as he’s clearly picked out the man wearing River Plate colours (his old club) well before the other lads turn up in front of him. The guy just wanted to give his shirt to a River Plane supporter! Case closed, IMO.
