ROME – Fifa president Sepp Blatter says that players should not leave the field of play if they are faced with racism.AC Milan players walked off during a friendly on Thursday after Ghana international Kevin-Prince Boateng was subjected to racist abuse from fans of fellow Italian side Pro Patria.But Fifa president Sepp Blatter said: "Walk off? That’s not the solution.”AC Milan’s players carried anti-racism messages on their shirts prior to Sunday’s match against Siena.Blatter continued: "I don’t think you can run away, because eventually you can run away if you lose a match.”"This is a very touchy subject, but there is zero tolerance of racism in the stadium,” Blatter was reported to have said in the Abu Dhabi-based publication The National.The 76-year-old Swiss, who has been the head of world football’s governing body since 1998, said there needed to be tougher punishments brought in, such as points deductions in order to deal with the issue of racism."The only solution is to be very harsh with the sanctions - and the sanctions must be a deduction of points or something similar.”
