<p>The German Football Association said on its website that Saturday morning’s game in Wakayama was abandoned with the score at 1-1 after Hertha Berlin defender Jordan Torunarigha was racially abused, with all of Stefan Kuntz’s side leaving the field following the incident.</p>
<p>“When one of our players is racially abused, playing on is not an option,” said Kuntz, as reported by www.dfb.de.</p>
