"I am a Muslim, thank God. Yesterday in the stadium, we heard the chant 'whoever does not jump is a Muslim'. I know it was directed to the opposing team and nothing towards myself as a person, but as a Muslim myself this does not stop being a lack of respect and something we can't tolerate."
"Using religion as something to mock people in a football stadium leaves you as ignorant and racist people. Football is to enjoy and support, not to offend people by who they are or what they believe in."
"It is just not tolerable. I think the vast majority of the stadium booed and whistled all the boors who sang this. Football is not violent."
Lamine Yamal criticized anti-Muslim chants during Spain's match against Egypt, labeling them as intolerable and disrespectful. The chant, directed at the opposing team, was heard throughout the stadium. Yamal expressed his disgust on Instagram, stating that using religion to mock others is ignorant and racist. He acknowledged that not all fans share this mindset and thanked those who supported the team. The Spanish Football Federation and coach Luis de la Fuente also condemned the chants, emphasizing the need to identify and distance violent individuals from football.
