AFC Toronto @AFC_Toronto

There is no place for racism in our game. Today and everyday we stand for respect and inclusion.

Meanwhile the Super Falcons will play Malawi today at 9pm.

I hope The super falcons up their game. The other female teams are catching up really fast. Especially Morocco, they would be out to down the falcons if they cross path again. Wishing them all the best

Why do they keep giving Morocco tournaments to hosts knowing fully well how hostile they are to black African teams? Why can CAF give it to someone else?

Some CAF officials must be benefiting something from taking tournalents, they had to practically beg them to host this one.

I know the useless only made this statement after AFC Toronto has made their official statement defending their delicious cheesy player Esther Okoronwo.

But, it's important that the very useless institution called CAF take action against that dark age nation called Morocco, either to excommunicate them in everything concerning football for the meantime or make them face other sanctions.
Re: NFF And AFC Toronto Condemn Racist Abuse Against Esther Okoronkwo by RICHOLAC(m): 7:51am On Jul 28
It's high time CAF looked elsewhere for this tournament, Cause it's now obvious that Morocco thinks that they're better than others.
Football should unite and not a setup for degrading opponent.

That should be a good thing. What's the fun in the game when there's no competition? Another team winning is good for the game and good for the Falcons as well.

Not even a single line of empathy or sympathy or the minutest care about the subject of racism directed at one of the girls from you ....all you care about is them raising their game ... on a thread that was opened to expose racism....
This is the exact same reason, some of you don't feel anything when politicians treat you like trash in that Country!
Re: NFF And AFC Toronto Condemn Racist Abuse Against Esther Okoronkwo by PlayerMeji: 8:13am On Jul 28
Na today...?

For centuries, Arab people have always considered the black skin as inferior that was why they made the blacks to be slaves and castrated the men an called them eunuchs.

And that's the reason why black people are not many among their own population, they made sure that they could not raise offspring among them even when they sleep with their own women.

An Arab man once said a black man is not different from a dog that the only difference is that his hands are raised from the ground...
Think about that for a second....

CAF will not take any action against Morroco beyond the usual rhhetorics ....they are in on it and making alot of money from projecting Morroco that are now ranked 6th in the world by FIfa....
If CAF turned around to manipulate rules that said Senegal should return the AFCON cup they FAIRLY win on the pitch of play against a very, very hostile Morrocan side who displayed terrible sportsmanship from players to FA and some of their citizens and got no serious sanctions then nothing will happen this time....and the tournament is just starting o!

Islam doesn't support Racism as the Prophet (SAW) categorically said it that " No Arab is superior to a Black...."

But some Muslims are racists. And that's a proof to that Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was a true Prophet.

Because he said in another hadith, "that three acts of Jahilliyah would never leave my Ummah" and one of them is Tribalism or Racism.

The hadith was a warning that Islam wants Muslim to strive against their souls and not exhibit any act or trait of Jahilliyah

But since we have different level of Eeman and Taqwa as Muslims, some fall into those acts.

.. because Morocco has world quality standard stadiums and football facilities, standard hotels, medical facilities, constant electricity, conducive secured environment and CAF makes a lot of revenue money from Morocco hosting Afcon tournament through private companies interest in terms of sponsorship

Thanks, does the prophet know all these things you said?

I couldn't help but come across these verses:

Ibn Ishaq, p. 243: 'Whoever wants to see Satan, let him look at Nabal b. al-Harith!' He was a sturdy black man with long flowing hair, inflamed eyes, and dark ruddy cheeks.

(Surah 3:106 - Surah 3:107). On the Day [some] faces will turn white and [some] faces will turn black. As for those whose faces turn black, [to them it will be said], "Did you disbelieve [i.e., reject faith] after your belief? Then taste the punishment for what you used to reject.

Mishkat al-Masabih 119, : Abud Darda' reported God’s messenger as saying, “God created Adam when He created him and struck his right shoulder and brought forth his offspring white like small ants. And he struck his left shoulder and brought forth his offspring black as though they were charcoal. Then He said to the party on his right side, ‘To paradise, and I do not care’ and He said to the party in his left shoulder, ‘To hell, and I do not care’.”

“A black man with skinny calves will destroy the Kaaba”
Sahih Bukhari 1595 1596

“The most hateful among the creation of Allah is one black man among them, the Khawarij”
Sahih Muslim 1066g


“You should listen to and obey your ruler even if he was an Ethiopian (black) slave whose head looks like a raisin”
Sahih al Bukhari 7142


A teaching from an Islamic Scholar: https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/274222/there-is-absolutely-no-racism-in-islam

"With regard to the Hadeeth reported by Abu Ad-Dardaa' may Allaah be pleased with him it is Dha‘eef (weak); Al-Arnaa’oot classified it as Dha‘eef in his revision of Imaam Ahmad's Musnad. Even if we assumed that the Hadeeth is Saheeh, it does not imply contempt of black people and does not indicate that all black people will go to Hell. It rather describes that the faces of the inhabitants of the Hellfire will be blackened because of their sins and disbelief. Al-Munaawi said in his commentary on the saying of Ibn Mas‘ood: "A slave (of Allaah) continues to lie until a black apot is scratched on his heart, until his whole heart becomes black": "He described it as black because black is the color of disbelief; Allaah, The Exalted, described the faces of the disbelievers in the Hereafter as 'black'; He says (what means): {On the Day [some] faces will turn white and [some] faces will turn black. As for those whose faces turn black, [to them it will be said], "Did you disbelieve after your belief? Then taste the punishment for what you used to reject."} [Quran 3:106]" [Faydh Al-Qadeer]"

“Allah created Adam… He struck his right shoulder and there emitted white offspring… He struck his left shoulder and there emitted black offspring… He said to the white: They are for Paradise… and to the black: They are for Hell”

Musnad Ahmad, Tirmidhi Hadith No. 38

Maybe, Just Maybe the Moroccans aren't the issue, Maybe its been what they have been indoctrinated and taught to believe their whole life.

What is all these you are trying to create meanings out of. Are you trying to make it seem like blacks should be above other races?


A good black person is a good person. A bad black person is a bad person.
A bad non black person is a bad person. Same way a good non black person is a good person


Go and read about Bilal (RA) who was one of the closest companions of the prophet (SAW)

Your prophet describes your race as demons and satan and undesirable, yet you continue. No wahala. Now I understand Ibrahim Traore. Truly this is a mental illness

Morocco is out for revenge

After suffering a lose the last time out in the finals to Nigeria

The tournament has not started and this is happening

Imagine when we will play them again
If we want to score,...maybe they will off the stadium light and use leaser beam

Shame to CAF who can't use another country as host
Cos it's looking like a scripted plan to reward Morocco with a trophy by all means

Very very very lame.

Even the haters of Islam during the life time of the prophet who were far more wicked didn't tell themselves silly lies
