The New York Red Bulls and forward Dante Vanzeir apologized on Monday after Vanzeir used a racial slur during their match with the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday night.
"During our match on Saturday, I made a decision that I thought was best given the information I had at that moment," Sruber said in a statement."While there was a lot of uncertainty at the time, with the information that I now know, the right decision would have been to immediately remove Dante Vanzeir from the game."
The incident in question occurred in the 54th minute of the match on Saturday. It resulted in 21 minutes of stoppage time."It is important we dig out all the facts. I want to be as open as possible here," Ebobisse."There is a lot of uncertainty here, I want to respect what will hopefully be a robust investigation. A difficult situation. I am grateful I was with my teammates ... Whether that is a good faith comment or not we shall see as the investigation goes on.
MLS is still investigating the incident, something both clubs and Vanzeir have supported. It’s unclear when that will conclude. Vanzeir, a 24-year-old from Belgium, said he would accept any punishment handed down by the Red Bulls and the league. Vanzeir has scored once in six appearances so far this season for the Red Bulls, who sit 1-4-2 on the year. Ebobisse has scored twice for the Earthquakes, who hold a 3-2-2 record.
