Milan storms off pitch after racist chants

AC Milan striker Kevin-Prince Boateng stormed off the pitch after racist chants from a group of fans on Thursday, forcing a friendly against fourth-tier club Pro Patria to be suspended.

"Shame that these things still happen," the 25-year-old German-born Ghanaian player said on Twitter after the match was stopped in the 26th minute when he led his team off the pitch. Sports daily Gazzetta dello Sport said it was the first time in Italy that a football game had been suspended because of racist chants. Meanwhile, Milan's Brazil international Alexandre Pato agreed a four-year deal with world club champion Corinthians.
