Suspended for saying stupid things live in program

'Sieg heil' is a Nazi salute which is banned in every country. Knowing this, these two words were spoken live on air (off camera) at the end of November by Marco van Basten who is working as a commentator at the Dutch version on Fox sports network. Thinking that the microphone was off, the former Netherlands international said that, who later issued an apology. He was immediately suspended for seven days from work, while the salary from the 55-year-old was donated at the institute for war documentation in the country. On top of that the well known video gaming company Electronic arts last Tuesday has removed his name from FIFA 20 game.
