Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo reported an alleged racist comment from a Liverpool supporter during the opening Premier League match of the season.
Referee Anthony Taylor brought a halt to the game on the half-hour mark after Semenyo informed the official.
“I am told via the Premier League Match Centre that Antoine Semenyo was the subject of a racist comment from the crowd,” Sky Sports commentator Peter Drury said.
“It was Semenyo himself who brought attention to it.”
Footage on social media appeared to show Semenyo have an exchange with one supporter before taking a throw-in, although it was not clear this was when the incident happened.
Semenyo could then be seen informing Taylor before Liverpool took a corner.
Taylor delayed the corner and went over to discuss the incident with the managers of Liverpool and Bournemouth, Arne Slot and Andoni Iraola.
Semenyo also made his way over to the sidelines, with players from both sides consoling the player after learning he was subjected to abuse.
