What if they were in a country where large lips where a common feature and the whole team stuck out their lips?
I'm asian, and I was about to say the exact same thing. Cultural naivete is not an excuse. It's no longer the 19th century where social darwinism and racial imperialism is accepted as a cultural norm. Given our globalized culture, and particularly the extent to which soccer has promoted anti-racist campaigns throughout Europe, to plead the case of 'ignorance' is simply unacceptable.

Sorry, but cultural naivete IS an excuse in this case imo, because the act of drawing back non-asian eyes to make them look more asian isn't insulting without the racially denigrating history behind it.

One poster said it before me but we need to be more accepting and practice some humility when it comes to race instead of being a bunch of uptight ass's who get their little panties all up in knots cause of some little picture.
