Maccabi, Legia Warsaw protest against refugees

Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv and Polish outfit Legia Warsaw have protested against welcoming refugees to their lands.

A number of football clubs, including Bayern Munich and Borussia Monchengladbach, have offered donations and support to various efforts to help those fleeing.

However, on Saturday, Maccabi Tel Aviv fans unfurled a banner which read, 'refugees not welcome', during their match against Hapoel Ironi Kiryat Shmona.

In Poland, a collection of Legia Warsaw supporters were heard chanting, "we all in Legia shout loud together, no to those Islam savages", during their team's 2-2 draw against Zaglebie Lubin on Friday.
