Borussia Dortmund forward now turn Manchester United player -- Jadon Sancho has insisted "hate will never win" after detailing his emotions following the penalty miss against Italy in the Euro 2020 final and subsequent racist abuse aimed at the forward and fellow England team-mates Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka.
Greater Manchester Police and West Mercia Police both arrested suspects, while Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday that social media companies will face fines amounting to 10 per cent of their global revenue if they fail to remove racist abuse from their platforms.
England's penalty shootout defeat to Italy on Sunday at the Wembley Stadium led to Rashford, Saka and Sancho all being targeted online.
Speaking for the first time since England's defeat, Sancho thanked supporters for their positive messages but insisted those sending racial abuse need to be held accountable.
"I'm not going to pretend that I didn't see the racial abuse that me and my brothers Marcus and Bukayo received after the game.
“But sadly it's nothing new. As a society, we need to do better, and hold these people accountable.
"Hate will never win if we keep on with those racist abuses.
“To all the young people who have received similar abuse, hold your heads up high and keep chasing the dream. I am proud of this England team and how we have united the whole nation in what has been a difficult 18 months for so many people.
“Much as we wanted to win the tournament, we will build and learn from this experience going forward.
"I want to say a massive thank you for all the positive messages and love and support that far outweighed the negative," Sancho said on Instagram.
The prolific striker concluded that the way forward is unity and not hate because hate in itself cannot win but with unity and love.
