The ugly incident of a fan racially abusing Antoine Semenyo during Liverpool's 4-2 victory over Bournemouth has resulted in an arrest. In the 30th minute of play, Semenyo reported racist abuse from the stands and the match was stopped by referee Anthony Taylor before being resumed while an anti-discrimination message was delivered to the crowd.

A 47-year-old man has been arrested after the Premier League’s season opener on Friday was briefly halted due to alleged racist abuse, local police announced Saturday.
