If this is all he said.....
"The interview showed Bentancur being asked by the host of Canal 10 to show the shirt of a Spurs player to which he replied: 'Sonny's? It could be Sonny's cousin too as they all look the same.'"
I would be hard pressed to consider it a racial slur at all.
Had he said " those chinks all look the same"...well that is a racial slur.
So now the FA has to classify racial slurs by degrees....with appropriate penalties for each degree.
This whole thing is a rat hole ...and a seven game ban is a bit much.

This whole thing reminds me of why Muhammad Ali said he would not fight in the Vietnam war.......
"No Vietnamese ever called me Nigga".
Now THAT'S a racial slur. And the real spelling is not allowed on JA606.

A lot of it is in the Interpretation isn't it.
If he was to say 'they all look the same' about the Hemsworth brothers, would anyone have even picked up on it ?
The fact he was talking about sonnys immediate family seems to lessen the severity significantly in my eyes. That initial context was missing from the quotes that we had seen.
I just didn't see anything else than him being punished though, he was made a scapegoat.
