Banana-eating anti-racism campaign gaining momentum

Interesting to see anti-racism campaign which followed Alves picking banana thrown at him up and eating it. It has gone viral all over the world.

A banana was thrown at Brazilian international Alves. He responded by peeling and eating the banana during the match at Villarreal on Sunday.

His actions were backed by footballers and celebrities across the world as support flooded in from fellow professionals posting pictures of themselves with bananas on to the internet.

Spanish police have arrested a man for allegedly throwing a banana at Barcelona defender Dani Alves during a football match at the weekend.
