Soccer players from the Paris Saint-Germain and Istanbul Basaksehir teams walked off the field during a Champions League game in Paris Tuesday and didn’t return in protest of a match official allegedly using racist language about a Black coach on the Turkish team.

Players on Basaksehir refused to come back on the field because the same group of officials would still be in charge, so the remaining minutes of the match will be played today with a new set of officials.
