On English speaking TV, I can guarantee you they would have transposed Germany and Nigera’s places in order to avoid this.
No… the game was Nigeria v Germany, they couldn’t transpose it as Germany v Nigeria because this is not the game it was (Germany was playing with non domestic jerseys). TV stations have to respect that. If no one thought “hum, Nig - Ger… nig…ger… Oh my God !” it’s because not everyone sees racism everywhere. No Nigerian player got shot on the field by white american cop, so it’s fine.
