UEFA charges CFF and FA over racist behaviour




UEFA has charged the Croatia Football Federation over crowd disturbances, fireworks displays, and racist behaviour of fans in the 1-1 draw against Italy last Sunday. The body also charged Italy's FA after fans set off fireworks on San Siro Stadium. Referee Bjorn Kuipers stopped the match twice while security arrested 16 supporters. Croatia Coach Niko Kovac expects no deduction from Croatia's point, however, but awaits sanction from Uefa. The case will be tried by Uefa disciplinary body on December 11.
