A top-flight manager in Slovenia will keep his job despite making a racial slur against one of his own players.

Olimpija Ljubljana boss Marko Nikolic called Blessing Eleke "a black idiot" after the Nigerian scored an equaliser in Saturday's 1-1 draw against NK Zavrc.

Nikolic said he felt Eleke's goal celebrations went on too long.

The Serb said he made "an emotional reaction" as it meant there was less time for a winner and "never intended to offend the player racially".

He added: "I spoke to Eleke and he said he understood my reaction because emotional outbursts of this kind can happen."

The club celebrated Eleke's goal with a post on its Twitter feed on Saturday:

He shouldn't have behaved like a black hediot, he know the team need a winer, why celebrate as if he just scored the winner, if I'm in the coach's shoe I might say worse.
Make he follow coach Laloko try that, the man manufactures new insults on a daily bases.
