A Spanish second division match between Rayo Vallecano and Albacete was abandoned at half-time on Sunday after Albacete forward Roman Zozulya was subjected to chanting from the home supporters, who accused him of being a Nazi.
Roman Zozulya is a Ukranian fascist, a founder of the Narodna Armiya, a fascist paramilitary militia based in the Dobass region of Ukraine and an admirer of Stepán Bandera who led violent pogroms against Poles, Jews and Russians in the Ukraine during the Nazi occupation of the country.
Over the past few years right-wing supporters of Spanish clubs have engaged in racist chanting (including throwing bananas at Dani Alves), homophobic chanting, derogatory chanting about dead football players and chanting in praise of Spain's fascist dictator Franco - all without consequence - but when a club's supporters rightly point to a known fascist he game is abandoned by La Liga officials.
Clearly La Liga is selective in how it deals with political chanting.
