The soocer need to break the barries of racism. The soocer players need to communicate with the people of those countries after they have signed by the foreign soccer clubs.

The players should treat a football as thier career they need to be serious about thier skills speaking with John Barnes he said "There is no racism in football unless the media people are provoking that to the fans of football, I never experience so such ill-treatment from other countires' he said.
