UEFA to probe Beasley complaints

LONDON (Reuters) - UEFA is to investigate allegations that home fans racially abused Rangers' U.S. midfielder DaMarcus Beasley in their Champions League qualifying win at Zeta in Montenegro.

Beasley, who scored his first goal for the Scottish club since his close-season move in Tuesday's 1-0 victory in the second round, second leg match, complained about his treatment.

"From what we have heard about what happened, we will investigate," a spokesman for European soccer's ruling body said on Wednesday.

"We are waiting to receive official reports and we will ask the clubs for statements. But at this stage there is no date for a meeting of the Control and Disciplinary Body.

"It's the start of the investigation."

Beasley, a former PSV Eindhoven player, told Rangers' Web site (www.rangersfc.co.uk): "I heard the chants from the crowd.

"It happened to me a few years ago when PSV played Red Star in Belgrade and I can't believe that racist abuse is still in football.

"People can come to a match and boo and jeer but the racist thing just has to get out of football.

"It sickens to hear these chants but when you are on the pitch you have to try to blank it out. It degrades the game for everyone."  Continued...
