The day after the derby, Mario Balotelli has given his thoughts on the game through a post published on his Instagram. « Yesterday the result against Bastia was right.. we will work more and try to get our objective.. the referee was good too ». But the main reason for his post was to show his disgust at the behavior of a section of Bastia fans.

 

 

Yesterday the result against Bastia was right.. we will work more and try to get our objective.. the referee was good too but I have a question for French people.. Is it normal that Bastia supporters make monkey noise end "uh uh" for the whole game and no one of the "commissions discipline " say nothing? So is racism LEGAL in France? Or only in Bastia ? Football is an amazing sport .. those people like Bastia supporters make it horrible ! VERGOGNA DAVVERO. UNE VRAIE HONTE .

OGC Nice had already been a victim of an attack by projectiles whilst on the team bus and are now shocked to learn of the behavior towards their players, especially Balotelli. The club congratulates them for remaining calm and not reacting and give them their full support.
