Fifa to examine alleged racism incidents from two international matches
FIFA is set to examine reports on two separate instances of alleged racism in international matches played on Monday.
The Republic of Ireland Under-21s’ match against Kuwait Under-22s in Austria was called off after an allegation that a Kuwaiti player racially abused one of Ireland’s substitutes.
The senior international between New Zealand and Qatar, also in Austria, was cut short after the New Zealand FA said one of its players, Michael Boxall, had a racist remark directed at him in the first half by a Qatari opponent.
