Ajax and Heracles have refused to play for the opening minute of their Dutch football league match, to protest racism.
After the ball was kicked off players, coaches and fans alike remained stationary clapping their hands for sixty seconds, during which the stadium's scoreboard displayed the message 'Racism? Then we don't play football.'
The move comes after Ahmad Mendes Moreira was subjected to racist abuse playing for second division side Excelsior last weekend.
