Swansea City, Millwall and Ji-sung Eom
13 October 2026

Swansea City’s 1-0 Championship victory at Millwall was interrupted for approximately seven minutes following allegations of racist abuse directed at South Korean winger Ji-sung Eom. The incident prompted the match officials to activate discrimination protocols and triggered a police investigation.

Eom was warming up near the touchline when the alleged incident occurred. Referee Edward Duckworth paused play while stadium announcements warned against discriminatory behaviour. Millwall confirmed cooperation with police and CCTV inquiries. Ronald later scored the winning goal, keeping Swansea two points clear at the top.
