#2 National Team of Spain
The end of 2004 saw the team and its associates infamous for their racially charged sentiments. During a training session the coach, Luis Aragonés, was caught on camera saying the phrase, “Show that you're better than that black shit" in Spanish. The incident caught on, and there were widespread appeals to get him sacked.
In another instance, when Spain played England in a friendly match, the English players of colour (including Ashley Cole as well as Shaun Wright-Phillips) were faced with a hostile environment.
Every time the ball was passed to them, the crowd would jeer imitating monkey noises and hurling abuses at them. The Royal Spanish Football Federation was fined heavily and warned for severe punishments should such cases arise again.
