Torino defender Nicolas Nkoulou had a very special dedication after his goal against Parma. ‘It was for my brother, George Floyd.’
This was the 30-year-old Cameroon international’s first goal of the season, nodding in a corner kick during the 1-1 Serie A draw.
“We started the match well and managed to score, then conceded the equaliser. It’s a pity, as it’s a game we could’ve won, but remains an important point,” Nkoulou told Sky Sport Italia.

After finding the net, Nkoulou celebrated by taking the knee, a gesture synonymous with the Black Lives Matter movement.
“When I scored, I immediately thought of my brother, George Floyd.”
