City to lodge UEFA complaint

[lfc4life]

Manchester City are to lodge an official complaint after striker Mario Balotelli allegedly suffered racial abuse from the crowd during Thursday night's win at Porto.

The club informed UEFA's matchday delegate of their intention to complain after the 2-1 UEFA Europa League success at the Estadio Dragao and will follow it up in writing on Friday.

Balotelli complained about being subjected to abuse first, with midfielder Yaya Toure backing up his claim.

Although manager Roberto Mancini did not hear the abuse, the striker has told a club official he heard abusive chanting during the game.

Reports circulated during the match that Balotelli and Toure were subjected to monkey noises.

When asked about it after the game, Mancini said he did not hear it - but Toure told Sky Sports News that he "heard something".

If that happen in England that is all the proof the FA would need to fine the club and make the team play in an empty stadium.

Na mate it has to happen a few times from the same sets of fans before you get a game behind closed doors.

Take the FA cup game against Oldham.

I wonder what that douche bag Piara Powar will say about this.
