Barcelona defender Dani Alves responded to a racist taunt when a banana landed at his feet during a game at Villarreal by picking up the fruit, peeling and then eating it before proceeding to take a corner kick.

Alves said after the match that humor is the best way to combat racism in sports.

"We have suffered this in Spain for some time," Alves said. "You have to take it with a dose of humor. We aren't going to change things easily.

"If you don't give it importance, they don't achieve their objective."

well done!

PS. 2 mins later he gave an assist to a goal. Seems like that banana gave him an extra kick
