MADRID: Barcelona reached the summit of the Spanish first division on Saturday but their 4-1 win at Malaga was marred by racism directed at their Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o.
African forward Eto'o was subjected to monkey chants by the home fans at the La Rosaleda before being booed when he was substituted late on as racism reared its ugly head once again.
Eto'o, 27, has become a major figure in football's bid to kick racism out of the game after being on the receiving end of similar remarks in the past.
