Millwall Fans Chant Against Injured Mateta After Hospitalization

Millwall fans have faced criticism for singing offensive chants about Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta during their recent 2-1 victory over Watford. Mateta was hospitalized after suffering a severe head injury from a tackle by Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts, who has since received a six-match ban from the FA for the incident. Despite the injury's seriousness, chants such as '25 stitches, it should have been more' and 'Que sera sera, whatever will be will be, Mateta's in A & E' were heard from Millwall supporters. Manager Alex Neil expressed a desire to move on from the incident, asserting that Roberts has accepted responsibility for his actions. The backlash against the fans’ behavior has prompted discussions about the club's culture and the need for accountability. Meanwhile, the Daily Mail has been banned from covering Millwall events due to its reporting on the matter.
