Beitar Jerusalem's Boris Ano Receives Hundreds of Support Messages After Online Abuse
Boris Ano, midfielder for Beitar Jerusalem, recently deleted all his Instagram photos following a wave of abusive messages from some fans. However, after the incident, he received hundreds of supportive messages from fans and teammates alike. Ano responded to some of these messages, expressing gratitude and clarifying that he understands most of the fanbase appreciates and supports him. He explained that he archived his photos temporarily to find peace and focus on football.
Beitar Jerusalem officials acknowledged Ano's own disappointment with his recent European performances, noting his high self-criticism and emphasizing that he is one of the best players in his position in Israel and a key team member. Teammates also offered encouragement, saying, "We have all been through this; usually, it’s kids who don’t know how to behave."
The episode sparked significant discussion among Beitar fans on social media, with many condemning the abusive messages similar to those received by Miguel Silva in recent months.
