A 47-year-old Liverpool man was arrested for racially abusing Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo during Friday's Premier League match at Anfield. The game was briefly halted after Semenyo reported the abuse to the referee. Merseyside Police confirmed the arrest on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence. Semenyo scored two goals despite the incident, and the Premier League, FA, and Kick It Out are investigating.
