Former defender Patrice Evra must resist fighting after being scorned by Luis Suárez in the match between Man Utd and Liverpool in 2011.
“Referee Andre Marriner came and asked what happened between us,” Evra told the Man Utd website on 4/5. “He saw me change my eyes and asked if I was okay. I told him Suarez argued racially with me and the referee said, ‘Okay, we’ll talk about this after the game. Keep playing and don’t do it. Do something silly.”

Evra was racist in Suarez during a match between Manchester United and Liverpool in Anfield in the Premier League in 2011. Later, Suarez was banned from playing eight games for this behavior.
“I remember, in that game, I said to myself, ‘If I hit him now, people will see me as a bad guy. People will forget what he said.’ I said in my mind. ‘No, don’t do that.’ I couldn’t focus on the game, “Evra said. “I can hit him on the field, but what do I do in exchange for that? Maybe I would be thrown out for two years. Many people, including children, watched the game that day.”
Evra also revealed that he was threatened with murder after a conflict with Suarez and that he had to hire bodyguards to accompany him for months. “After the press incident, Man Utd received many threatening letters addressed to me. They wrote: ‘We Liverpool fans in prison will go out and kill you and your family.’ In two months” I was protected wherever I was. outside. They slept in front of my house. I went with bodyguards wherever I went, “Evra added.” It was a difficult time. But I was not afraid. My family, my wife, and my younger brother were scared, but not me. I couldn’t understand why people hated me so much. I didn’t know the truth was that. “
Evra spent 20 years of his career, from 1998 to 2018 for eight different clubs. Among them, the most successful is at Man Utd (2006-2014), where he won five Premier League titles and one Champions League.
