Scott Brown showed his class during the warm up ahead of the Glasgow Derby kick-off against Rangers by crossing into the Rangers half and showing solidarity with Glen Kamara. The 25-year-old midfielder for the Ibrox outfit was distraught following a racist comment from Slavia Prague’s Ondrej Kudela.
Brown shook Kamara’s hand and embraced him, resulting in a brilliant picture of solidarity against racism, bigotry and sectarianism.

Celtic stand against all forms of bigotry, racism and sectarianism and it was pleasing to see Scott Brown represent the club in showing that it is unacceptable.
Hopefully this instance can spark condemnation of all unacceptable abuse going forward.
The club need to regain some pride on the pitch following a poor showing in all competitions this season. They can start by winning today.
No place for racism in football or society, great to see such widespread attention being brought to the table regarding this massively important issue https://t.co/YLflOJsT3b

Class gesture from @CelticFC captain Scott Brown to approach @RangersFC Glen Kamara during warm up with show of support on behalf of the team. Winning’s important for both sides today. But the issue of utterly unacceptable racism transcends football.
