Hammer reluctant to discuss alleged racial abuse

|

Hammer Vladimir Coufal declined to comment on allegations Ondrej Kudela racially abused Rangers’ Glen Kamara;

Sky Sports pressed the Hammer who seemed uneasy to discuss the issue on camera, pushed for an answer Coufal said ”

Of course, everyone from the Czech team stands by Ondrej and everyone is glad that he is here,” Coufal said.

He is an important part of our squad. Other things that happened, I can’t comment on.

Kudela’s club Slavia Prague have vehemently denied the accusations of “vile racist abuse” relating to the game in Glasgow on March 18, but Police Scotland confirmed last week they are investigating the incident.

The incident occurred when Kudela and Slavia Prague faced Rangers in the second leg of a Europa League last-16 tie at Ibrox earlier this month.

Kudela has travelled with the Czech Republic squad for their World Cup qualifier against Wales on Tuesday

    How on earth can someone be expected to make a comment on an incident which occurred when he was over 250 miles away when it happened. Ludicrous in the extreme.
