He doesn’t speak overly emotively, yet his tone of voice carries more weight than most rants. He seems genuinely saddened that this has happened

Even as a Celtic fan the fact that this has happened to the guy is a shambles, he’s just doing his job on the pitch and doesn’t deserved to be abused for the colour of his skin, absolutely shocking

From a Celtic man . No room for racism at all 👍💚

As a 45 yr long Liverpool fan I’m so impressed with the way Stevie G speaks as a manager as a leader , makes me feel confident for his future back at Anfield in years so come

Fair play Stevie G, touch of class lad.

If Stevie G was my manager I’d run through a wall for him

Steven Gerrard always respected the late Gerrard Houllier for being a father-like other than a great manager to him.. and the man will be now be looking down and be very very very proud of him - doing the same now to his own players!!! Well done Stevie ..

I’d love to hear some thoughts from the people that disliked this video - seems like they’re hiding too.

The way Gerrard spoke here is just as meaningful to me as any of his Liverpool highlights. What an absolute gem of a man.

Sending love and support to Glen Kamara. There is simply no room for racism!

Why can't everyone be like this massive respect this is coming from Manchester United fan 👍👍

As a Celtic fan, I've just got to say that the fans of Rangers aren't fans of Celtic fans and Celtic fans aren't fans of the Rangers fans but one thing that brings the fans together is understanding that fans are fans, and when it comes to Racism, fans have to not be fans of it. And that's from a Celtic fan

It’s worse that I’m not even surprised by this.

Absolute class from Stevie g, an immense captain, an immense manager and an immense human being. Well said !

He’ll always be my Captain. Stevie G, proper legend, and a proper gentleman.

Love the fact he still showed respect to Slavia for beating them fairly

My Manager. Couldnt be more proud of him and the whole team tonight. What was shown during and after the game has made me more proud than any result could have

I’m a Manchester man, and I always respected Stevie the player, but the way he spoke and conducted himself in this interview has made me respect him has a person multitudes more

I can understand that players want to do everything for this manager

The way he says " he's been racially abused " made me saddened.

Stevie G again so professional and someone needs to take notice of this awful situation we have in football and the world and sort it out!

What's worse. A let's take out a brutal foul that could have killed? Words only two players heard? Assaulting a player in a tunnel? Use racism to reverse a loss? Don't understand! I'm disappointed. They couldn't bear defeat.

Now i don't watch football very often, two players from the opposing team ended in a hospital, one directly from the field, one from punching in the cabins. Why the racism that cannot be proven, as it happened by whispering into ear, takes precedence over the two guys that will not play for some time ? Am i missing something.

Stevie g is truly a G

Steven articulated himself perfectly. Salute

Gerrard the most respected former enemy. A Man Utd fan.

“Some things are bigger than football” Hear that UEFA?!?!

Typical Gerrard, even after everything that has gone on - very humble, stills sends his congratulations - not ranting, just genuinely upset at what has been said. It's a shame it couldn't focus fully on how well the team have done, apart from a few hiccups along the way.

I’m a Utd fan, but I’m buzzed Stevie is doing so well, granted it didn’t go well tonight, but he’s been an excellent manager, and would like to see him back in the Prem managing.

Im a city fan, but i cant lie, stevie g might be my favourite football personality, humble, honest, intelligent, the guy is all round brilliant

A nice word for the injured keeper would have been a class touch too...

I love this man. From Liverpool to Rangers everything he does is with full passion and commitment. ❤️

Fair play, Gerrards stood up for whats right there, this needs ended. Respect, from a celtic fan

I think it’s so important for a manager to be close with all his or her players because not only does it improve the teams results but it also gives the players that confidence to speak to there manager about things like racial comments or even personal life. Good to see Gerrard speak up about it and reminding people that it’s still happening and that not enough is being done about it. Keep that chin up Kamara.

Very sad what the Glasgow did in the match vs Slavia. But they don't talk about it ...

I am saddened by Rangers. I have never seen in my life such a foul and shameful behaviour on the pitch especially in the second half. It was just a disgrace. No word of sorry about what Roof did to Slavia's goalkeeper.

Massive respect for the way Gerrard handled this interview.

Disgusting. But don't worry UEFA doesn't mind they get their money and thats what matters

I am black ⚫ And I never mind when people's call me black..... Because I am black.... I don't know why some people are so sensitive when they are call black.... Be proud of it.....

This Steven Gerrard guy is an absolute legend a credit to Liverpool & Rangers. The way he handled this whole situation speaks volumes on his character and integrity as a man!

Its ok Lads Man utd will do them in.

Am a Celtic supporter but respect to Gerard we need to has a society get rid of this venom (racism)

nice to see a manager making such a powerful comment

As a celt, touch of class Stevie G 👏

Gerrard sounds so saddend and he really speaks from his heart and he is honest that they were beaten. Hope that he will be a top class manager

Seems strange Rangers condemning racism given the vile chants rangers fans sing about Catholics.

What a class human being. We can all take a lesson for Stevie G.

5:12 Stevi had to remind people that he knows the game and situations like that inside out

How is he saying something things are bigger than football when he supported Suarez against Evra.. Hypocrit

Fair play to his response tor this. Massively backs up his player here with passion. I’m a Celtic fan as well

Somebody needs to explain to him going 'toe to toe' with someone means confronting them.

I'm a Slavia fan and I'm really embarrassed. Well said by the legend Stevie Gerrad, the incident is bigger than the game itself and should have consequences.

Proud of Rangers unlucky but racism is getting ridiculous! Steven Gerrard spoke with heart I hope Glen Kamara will be OK. Hope UEFA deals with it! On a positive note Scotland have moved up to 11th in the coefficient table which means should either Rangers/Celtic win the SPL they automatically qualify for the group stages of the CL in 22/23 season!

I'm abit of a Celtic fan myself and have to say what a true pro steve Gerard is. No room for that type of bile in football and my heart goes out to Glen and the club..

Hold on I don’t remember him feeling that strongly when he played alongside Suarez

He’s spot on big up stevie G nailed everything on the head

As a Liverpool fan, just know we're here to support. Stick in there Kamara

I can’t stand him, I support United, by my goodness he is speaking well, that is a very impressive interview.

He just oozes class 100% Top man! so happy to see one of the greatest players ever turn into a manager who could go all the way! Has a serious football head on his shoulders! ✌

We stand for Glen Kamara ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

As a united fan, always admired Stevie G as a player and now he's doing a quality job as manager, and more importantly as a person. Congrats rangers on a quality season. Wouldve loved a rangers v United encounter next round but maybe next year in the champions league

How is racism still in the world it’s disgusting respect to Stevie G NO ROOM FOR RACISM

The only thing that was proven in this havoc was Kamara punching Kudela in his face.

Even that im a Slavia fan i hope this situation will be investigated properly and if Kudela really said that he must be punished. Slavia team and Slavia fans say NO to racism.

Can’t believe it happens so often, that we’re not even surprised by it anymore

Not sure he’s using “toe to toe” right but the rest was amazing

As a Rangers fan? I legitimately love this man. I love this man.

A take ma hat aff to Stevie G . Liverpool legend and now a ranjurs legend to come in and take (probably) the worst rangers at the time to Europa League R16 and also stop us from 10 is phenomenal. Rangers are back, but most importantly the *Old Firm* is back 👏🏼🍀

I'm fascinated by how everything revolves around racism and the fact that there were several liquidation operations in that struggle that could have had fatal consequences is not a word about that. The Rangers have once falsely accused their opponents of racism, evidently making it a shield for their brutality on and off the field. The Rangers, led by Gerrard, fell to the total human bottom of my .. Racism is obviously worse today than the targeted brutal mutilation of an opponent ?! Where is the world going ?!

Couldn’t ask for much more from him as a manager here. Pretty much handled the interview and the situation as well as he could’ve. Seemed to say all the right things in my opinion.

I'm a Celtic and Ireland fan but Gerrard is a man of great integrity on the pitch and off it.Always has been ,during his days at Liverpool and playing for his country,he has never altered. Whoever has had Gerrard as a friend ,a teammate ,or manager is a lucky person I would say without any reservations whatsoever.

stevie is such a classy manager

Utterly outstanding reaction YET AGAIN from SG!!! This man is special!!

Where was this rant when Suarez said abusive stuff to Evra...the problem is teams always stick with their players and the situation is often diluted

Yet no mention of Slavia’s players being physically abused by Rangers. So clearly words hurt more than injuries

Isn’t this the same guy who supported Luis Suarez after he racially abused Patrice Evra.

Saw glen play when he was at Colchester his improvement since then has been fantastic absolutely awful situation slavia will probably be fined a packet of crisps.and a can of cola and it never be spoken of.ahain.from the uefa side.

Same guy that backed Suarez btw

Amazing speech for stevie here, I'm an old celtic boy but I can't help but say I'm now 50/50 in the old firm

And this coming from a club steeped in both religious and racial hatred.

FROM A UTD FAN WELL DONE STEVIE G 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

No room for racism in football at alll !!!

Bang out of order what has happened, more needs to be done about this...

Seeing the comments makes me realise 99% of people are normal and really respectful of others, it’s just that 1% man.

What happened at the end of the match is meaningless. What happened during the game should be the media story. There are few tackles in football where a player is scared for life.

Didn't see him complaining about his buddy Suarez.

Steven Gerrard is a REAL LEADER. I am not a Rangrs supporter...but I support Steven and his team on this. Slavia should be immediately kicked out of this competition...NOW. WELL DONE TO THE RANGERS PLAYERS AND MANAGER ON THIS ONE.

Well said Steven,no player deserves this...As a Celtic Fan I condone this kind of behaviour...better team won but this team doesn't deserve to be called a team and kick out of the competition

What the hell has Kamara done to him to receive that kind of comment? 🤢 Ban him.

I think rangers can be proud! Hmm this issue of racism in football is far from over. Sending love to Glen💕

The only way to stop the racism in football is to exclude any team that is guilty of it. This should be in any competition. The problem with this is proving what was said , it will always be denied by the accused and a big fine will be issued to line the pockets of the association involved., Proof of racism would be a bad day for the authorities 🥊

Since coming to rangers Steven Gerrard has been respectful towards opponents and has avoided controversy with them. I believe what he is saying. Racism against anyone is deplorable.

One big lie. Dunno what Kudela said to Kamara, its just speculation. Kamara physically insulted Kudela in the tunnels, thats a fact. Slavia players were left standing outside on the pitch for over 30 minutes after the match, thats a fact. Slavia had to call police to get out of Ibrox, thats a fact. 2 reds for Rangers in the game, a fact. Stevie needs to get a grip and apologize in public. Rangers should be banned from Uefa for the next season.

Forget about Steve's position as a manager, what he has said is just the right human thing to say. He has said what any human should feel like they need to say for another human after what that human has been through. Steve is a brilliant human and a great person to say what has needed to be said for some years now.

No room for racism

Stevie G. What a manager, keeping his head during this while demonstrating his disgust for this kind of behaviour as strongly as anyone I have ever seen in football before. He cares about his players, evident at Liverpool and now at Rangers, and I wish him all the best. Not to mention the level headed, modest and pragmatic nature of his interviews, which is everything a club could want from their manager if they are delivering like he is.

"Ondřej Kúdela is one of the team captains elected in secret polls by the players who choose characters that enjoy their trust. He is a decent and modest person with a strong moral integrity, popular amongst the players and fans, a football gentleman. He categorically denies and refutes any allegations of racism. We are shocked that his reputation and the club’s reputation are being smeared without a single piece of evidence. The only “alleged” evidence is the player covering his mouth - which Ondřej does on a regular basis when he talks to his teammates during our games. Under the patronage and in the presence of the UEFA delegation, the coaches of both teams, Ondřej Kúdela and Glen Kamara met. After the arrival of Slavia representatives, Ondřej was physically abused by the player of Rangers FC who then fled into the locker rooms followed by the manager Steven Gerrard without a single word of apology. The incident is thoroughly described in the match protocol and Slavia will consider filing a criminal complaint after their return to the Czech Republic."

The real damage in this game was to the keepers face lol

"SK Slavia Prague filed criminal complaint to Scottish police through the Embassy of the Czech Republic in London for physical assault on player Ondřej Kúdela. Physical assault on Ondřej Kúdela was prepared and deliberate act which included covering of cameras on the site of the incident. The assault was brutal and carried out with the full force with the intention to hurt and cause physical harm to our player. In the text, the names of people who witnessed the incident are stated, including UEFA representatives and Rangers FC manager Mr. Steven Gerrard. "

Mic all players and officials would that be possible??
