ISL 2019-20: Bengaluru FC midfielder Raphael Augusto takes to Twitter to address Chennaiyin FC fans' controversial banner
n a series of tweets on Monday, Bengaluru FC midfielder Raphael Augusto on Monday revealed that he had been offended and deeply hurt after witnessing a banner from his former club Chennaiyin FC’s fans which controversially portrayed him as a snake.
Chennaiyin suffered a 3-0 loss to the defending champions in the Indian Super League (ISL) on Sunday, a match in which a group of fans had displayed a controversial banner which said, ‘Snake into the team of Dolphins, unreal combo’, with the ‘Dolphins’ referring to Bengaluru FC.
The Brazilian footballer took to Twitter to elaborate on what exactly happened.
In a later tweet, he also stated that when his Bengaluru teammates showed him the banner, they could not believe it, although by his own admission, Augusto was not particularly surprised.
The win on Sunday was their first this season after three consecutive draws. They next play Kerala Blasters at home on 23 November following the international break.
wtf is that video... All Field goals from Mumbai- Goa, BFC-CFC & ATK - JFC match ... and title is top 10 goas of game week 3... there were total 10 goals (field goals) in that week ...
It is very rude of the fans to do that..In that case BFC and other fans should also do it for so many players in this league? Edu Garcia, John Johnson etc
