On the 17th (Korean time), he said on his SNS page, "'Racism cannot be tolerated in every aspect of sports and life.'" After the incident, the coaching staff and fellow players immediately said they would leave the stadium if necessary and continued to check on me. Once again, I am grateful to my colleagues..."
And despite all this, I wanted to keep playing, and we did what we had to do on the field. Thank you to everyone who sent a message of support. There is no place for racism.
Hwang Hee-chan was exposed to racism in a friendly match against Italy's Serie A Como 1907 on the 16th. I heard racist comments from Como, and my teammates kept Hwang Hee-chan.
Daniel Podense punched a player who made racist comments to Hwang Hee-chan and was immediately shown a red card. Not only Podence but also other teammates were angry and engaged in a war of nerves with Como players.
Hwang Hee-chan, who was put in at the beginning of the second half, played until the end even after the racist incident. Wolverhampton won 1-0 over Como.

O'Neill continued "The fact that this happened, the fact that we have to talk about it, and the fact that it affected the game is really disappointing. It's not ideal and it shouldn't happen."
And "Hwang Hee-chan must have been really disappointed. It's understandable. I'm proud of the fact that he wanted to think of the team first and keep going during the difficult times."Hwang Hee-chan will be fine. He added, "We will have our full support, and we will also make sure that it is okay."
Hwang Hee-chan was also controversial in the 2022 pre-season friendly due to his exposure to racism from SC Fahrense fans. Wolverhampton made an official statement at club level.
`Racism or discrimination in any form is completely unacceptable and should never be left unchallenged,' the club said."We will file a formal petition with UEFA regarding this case.'

The absurd explanation is that Wolverhampton players called Hwang Hee-chan 'Chani', so their team's defenders also called him 'Jackie Chan'. Como also said "Our players never spoke with derogatory manners. It is disappointing that the incident has been overstated by some Wolverhampton players.
Como is an Italian club that was promoted to Serie A during the 2024-2025 season. He is led by Spanish legend Cesc Fabregas, who played for Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea.
