Turkish football team get "racist" welcome in Iceland

REYKJAVIK, ICELAND - JUNE 09: Turkey's Burak Yilmaz and Emre Belozoglu speak to reporters as Turkish national football team and head coach Senol Gunes arrive in Keflavik International Airport in Reykjavik, Iceland on June 09, 2019 ahead of the UEFA Euro 2020 European Championship Qualifiers Group H match against Iceland. After landing in the country's Keflavik Airport, the team were not allowed to leave for over three hours, and Icelandic airport officials gave no reason for this. Later, airport officials insisted on searching the bags of all players and staff. "What they have done is disrespectful and rude! We have been waiting here for three hours. They took everyone's bags and even everyone's cosmetics. They searched it again and again. We flew for 6.5 hours and we've waited for three hours," Yilmaz said. While speaking to media on his way out, Turkish captain Emre Belozoglu was accosted by an Icelandic man who held a toilet brush to his face as a makeshift microphone. Belozoglu ignored the intentional provocation and told media, "We were searched more than once which was unnecessary." The Turkish National Football Team will face Iceland on Tuesday in the European Qualifiers for UEFA EURO 2020. (Footage by Murat Karadag/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images)
