Fifa clear HNK Rejika of racial abuse

Croatian side HNK Rejika have been cleared of racially abusing Manchester City youngster Seko Fofana.

During a friendly in June, City coach Patrick Vieira marched his under-21 team off the pitch when Fofana claimed Rejika players made racist comments towards him.

The French midfielder was sent off for an off-the-ball incident moments before the team walked off the pitch.
