Anti-Semetic slurs shouted against goalie

PAMPLONA, Spain, Nov. 27 (UPI) -- Israeli goalkeeper Dudu Awate has been the target of anti-Semitic slurs by fans of a rival team in Pamplona, Spain.

Awate, who surrendered four goals in the Deportivo La Coruna's 4-1 loss to Osasuna, was shouted at by supporters of the opposing team every time he placed the ball for a goal kick, YNetNews reported Monday. The supporters also waved Palestinian flags.

Awate, who has faced similar heckling when playing against the team in the past, did not respond to the catcalls.
