Everything has to be paid for one day. You won't take it to heaven. Believe me. Nasser, you can have all the money in the world and even more, class can't be bought."</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Rabiot’s mother has confirmed she intends to file a complaint regarding the fans' chants and banners. "Of course I'm going to file a complaint. I don't understand why the match wasn't stopped," Veronique, who is also Adrien's agent, told <em>Radio France</em>. "I don't understand why no one is outraged. I'm really outraged, outraged, really outraged by what can be said and written, without anyone reacting."</p>
