PARIS (Reuters) - A furious Mario Balotelli asked fans if racism was "legal in France" after the Nice striker accused Bastia supporters of abusing him during his team's 1-1 Ligue 1 draw on Friday, prompting a French League investigation.

The Italian posted a message on his Instagram page on Saturday, saying the incident was a "real shame".
