The racial abuse of a Manchester United fan and presenter during a live stream during the Red Devil's Premier League match on Sunday with Chelsea sent the internet into a fury. Many, including United Defender Harry Maguire, have come out in support of the presenter, named Flex. Now, internet sleuths are claiming that the abuser has been identified. The video surfaced when Flex was live streaming from outside Old Trafford, Manchester United's home ground, where the match was being held. As he was speaking in front of the camera, a woman appeared from his right and called him 'n*****.' Some social media users are claiming that the woman is Alex Sutton. A screenshot of the woman was also being shared on social media alleging that she was the one seen in the stream.

After the incident, Flex released a video highlighting the importance of standing against all forms of racist behavior. He thanked his 230,000 followers on X for the support showed to him. Apart from Maguire, former Red Devils' coach Beni McCarthy has also come out in support of Flex. "The solidarity shown by every single one of you... that has been amazing," Flex said in the video. When you are black and this does happen to you, male or female, it takes a lot out of you, man. I'm tired. But at the same time, you don't stop." "In 2024, as you saw by the reaction, I was stunned. And I'm not stunned racism exists. I'm thick-skinned, every black person knows, and every person who isn't racist knows racism exists. "But just at how overtly racist the incident was. You feel blindsided - they're one of you at the start - obviously the individual isn't with the views that they have - but they come across as one of you, singing United ones, lure you in thinking it's just someone having a good time, and then you get caught blindsided with that." The match, meanwhile, ended in a draw with both sides taking a point each. While captain Bruno Fernandes scored in the 70th minute for Manchester United, midfielder Moises Caicedo equalised four minutes later.
