Chelsea are stepping up their approach to push their anti-discrimination message.
The Blues have published this match programme ahead of the home leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie with PSG to promote equality among their supporters. The programme cover features the large exclamation of "We are all blue" as well as "#Equality" and the same message can be seen in a large banner in the crowd.
A discrimination spotlight was shone on Chelsea's fans after a group of travelling supporters were filmed denying a black Parisian access to a train ahead of the away leg while chanting a racist song.
Five men involved in the incident have been ordered to appear in court while the Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, attempted to offer his apologies to the victim, Souleymane S, by inviting him to watch the return fixture in Stamford Bride.
Souleymane revealed that he had declined that invitation, saying he cannot be bought "with a little piece of paper."Explore more on these topics:
