A Belfast businessman racially abused after a Northern Ireland match at the weekend has been speaking about his ordeal...

The incident happened as Ali Askir was driving near Windsor Park on Saturday afternoon.

Police are treating it as a racially-motivated hate crime.

The Irish Football Association has condemned the attack and invited Mr. Askir to attend another international fixture later this year.

He's told Q Radio he'll be delighted to take up the offer....
