Tottenham are unlikely to face any motion over offensive chants at Emmanuel Adebayor which prompted allegations of racism from the Actual Madrid striker.

UEFA confirmed this morning there was "nothing within the delegate's report" that would trigger an investigation into the abuse suffered by the former Arsenal star in Tuesday night time's Champions League quarter-last first leg at the Bernabeu.

Unless European football's governing physique receive official notification of an offence from stadium safety or the police, Spurs is not going to be charged.

The club accept the abuse directed at on-mortgage Manchester Metropolis forward Adebayor - who scored twice in Actual's 4-0 crushing win on Tuesday - was offensive.

But they're adamant the mantra which contains the words, "Your dad washes elephants, your mom's a whore", is not racist in nature.

The 27-yr-outdated mentioned the battle against racism was ongoing but conceded "we won't do something to stop it".

He stated: "Massive players better than me have tried to cease that, nevertheless it's not simple at all.

"Racist? We've achieved every part we can to point out the crimson card to racism. However individuals are still into it, that is a part of life.

"Coming from Africa, I am just very blissful, taking part in soccer is sort of a dream that comes true.

"And I just wish to send a giant help to all Africa, with what is happening in Libya and what is occurring in the Ivory Coast. I've acquired loads of family, a whole lot of friends.

"Racists are all the time there and we won't do something to cease it. Samuel Eto'o and big gamers have spoken about it higher than I do, but it surely's not stopped them."

FERGIE PRAISES RESILIENT ROONEY

Sir Alex Ferguson was delighted with Wayne Rooney's efficiency after 5 days under the highlight following his 4-letter outburst at Upton Park on Saturday.

Rooney's winning strike in opposition to Chelsea got here after 23 minutes, dispatching the possibility clinically following a sweeping crossfield cross from Michael Carrick and a deft pull-back from Ryan Giggs.

Ferguson stated: "Work-price, need, he was prime quality. He took an important lot of abuse and late tackles on him, but he was excellent.

"He is now been extra regular together with his goalscoring which, within the last a part of the season, is going to be important to us. That was necessary for us tonight. We had been happy with that performance."

Ferguson refused to substantiate whether Rooney, who learns on Thursday the outcome of his attraction against the size of his two-match ban for his outburst at Upton Park, could be playing towards Fulham on Saturday.

But he promised not to be complacent in regards to the second leg at Old Trafford.

Ferguson mentioned: "Now we have to be very cautious and have to offer a top efficiency, but the environment will assist us.

"I hope we get through Saturday's sport with none further injuries. Anderson will probably be back against Fulham. It will be a decent game at Old Trafford."

United's one bitter observe was the sight of full-back Rafael being carried off with a knee harm which forced Antonio Valencia to go to right-back.

"They overloaded in midfield, and it's important to be clever the way you handle that," stated Ferguson.

"Ji-Sung Park was unbelievable in there and did an ideal job. We did well contemplating we needed to take Rafael off, with Valencia going to proper-back.

"It is a bonus, but the biggest benefit is Previous Trafford. It will be an electrical atmosphere."

Ferguson insisted he felt no guilt after Chelsea have been denied what appeared a blatant penalty.

Ferguson maintained he had not studied the incident on tv but believed it was justice for the misfortunes United have suffered at Stamford Bridge in the past.

Ferguson said: "Yeah, somebody mentioned it could have been a penalty. It was the primary penalty choice we've had in seven years, so we're due one.

"However I do not feel guilty about that at all. It was a 50-50 from the place I was and I don't know what the contact state of affairs was."

On a second penalty declare in the dying moments for which Chelsea striker Fernando Torres obtained the yellow card, Ferguson added: "He dived, he got booked for it."

ANCELOTTI ANGRY OVER PENALTY BLOW

Chelsea supervisor Carlo Ancelotti was incensed with officers after their 1-0 defeat to Manchester United within the Champions League.

Chelsea players claimed they should have had a spot-kick in harm time when Ramires seemed to be introduced down by United full-back Patrice Evra.

Spanish referee Alberto Mallenco waved away the appeals to permit United to take a 1-0 result in Previous Trafford, courtesy of a Wayne Rooney first-half strike, in the second leg subsequent Tuesday.

Ancelotti mentioned of the penalty claim: "It was clear. For everyone. Everyone is aware of it was clear.

"The problem is I do know it's generally not straightforward to offer the penalty in the last minute and you must have persona, courage and character. Not at all times do referees have these kind of skills.

"I'm disillusioned but that is the result. Not just the referee, but the assistant was in the right place to decide that was a penalty.

"I mentioned to the referee (after the sport) that it was a penalty and he needed to whistle. He mentioned nothing. No answer.

"The players are aggrieved. However we now have to forget it and be focused for the subsequent game. We now have to strive our greatest there."

Ancelotti believed his side had been unlucky and admitted they now had an uphill task.

He said: "It's not simple, but I believe now we have to try. Clearly we all know it will likely be tough to win there.

"We have now confidence to do it. Final 12 months it was the identical - we needed to win at Outdated Trafford and we did this.

"We are at a drawback now, but the efficiency was good. Not one hundred% however, typically, we had good control but conceded a purpose too easily.

"We had opportunities, labored laborious, and had a transparent probability to have a penalty at the end.

"We hit the submit within the first half. We had some opportunities to attain: we did not should lose, nevertheless it doesn't matter. We have to alter the end result at Outdated Trafford.

"It is just ninety minutes. We've one other 90 minutes to play.

"If we were 1-zero up it could be a special scenario at Previous Trafford. Now we're 1-zero down and we have now to play attacking football to win this game."

TORRES STILL HAS ANCELOTTI BACKING

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is continuing to completely assist his document signing Fernando Torres, despite the Spaniard's continued aim drought for his new club.

The ?50million signing is but to score for The Blues since his deadline day arrival from Liverpool.

Torres once more drew a blank on Wednesday night as Chelsea misplaced the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-closing with Manchester United.

Regardless of going more than 10 hours without discovering the online, Ancelotti remains to be backing Torres to come good.

Ancelotti stated: "Now we have to have confidence. He (Torres) has to believe and maintain going and he'll score.

"I needed to play differently. Drogba worked very exhausting on this recreation after playing 90 minutes on Saturday, so for this reason I saved Torres on the pitch."

WAYNE ROONEY FAILS WITH BAN APPEAL

Wayne Rooney bears a clear sense of injustice after being instructed he should serve a two-match suspension for his four-letter outburst at West Ham on Saturday.

The Football Affiliation confirmed the information this morning, meaning Rooney will sit out Saturday's Premier League encounter with Fulham at Outdated Trafford, plus the eagerly-anticipated FA Cup semi-ultimate with Manchester City at Wembley on April 16.

And the 25-year-previous, who scored the only aim in United's Champions League quarter-remaining triumph over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge final night time, is clearly not happy.

In a statement issued by his spokesman Ian Monk, Rooney said: "I am gutted to overlook two matches, one of which is an FA Cup semi-remaining at Wembley.

"I am not the first participant to have sworn on TV and I won't be the last.

"In contrast to others who've been caught swearing on digicam, I apologised immediately. And yet I'm the only particular person banned for swearing. That does not seem right.

"No matter, I have to simply accept that what's occurred has happened and transfer on from here. That's what I intend to do."

Rooney has been joined in his disappointment by United, whose supervisor Sir Alex Ferguson only needed to look back to the final Manchester derby in February, which the striker settled with a sensational overhead kick, for the influence he will be lacking at Wembley.

"Manchester United is clearly very disillusioned with the decision," said a statement issued by the Old Trafford outfit.

"The membership put forward a really sturdy case to have the punishment lowered, which was unsuccessful.

"Wayne apologised instantly after the match and the membership now needs to maneuver to on to what hopefully will be a really thrilling conclusion to the season."

The FA opted not to release the result of yesterday's disciplinary listening to instantly following a request by United, who didn't wish to endure any disruption to their preparation for last night's Chelsea clash.

However, the delay merely introduced bad news.

"A Regulatory Commission has suspended Manchester United's Wayne Rooney for two matches," learn a statement issued by the FA this morning.

"Rooney had admitted a cost for the use of offensive, insulting and/or abusive language, but claimed that the automated penalty of two games was clearly excessive. "The Commission did not accept the declare and Rooney will start the standard two-match suspension with rapid effect.

"The cost pertains to an incident throughout his facet's fixture with West Ham United on the Boleyn Floor on Saturday 2 April 2011."

If there may be any comfort for United, it's that the 2-match suspension was not elevated, because the disciplinary panel had the ability to do.

It means Rooney shall be available for the journey to Newcastle on April 19, although he can even play in Tuesday's deciding second-leg against Carlo Ancelotti's men, when United look to book a semi-closing meeting with both Inter Milan or, extra probably, German challengers Schalke.

The FA will view it as a watershed moment for their hopes of enhancing player behaviour, while it is one other blow to Rooney's image, even if sources close to the player have been anxious to distance affirmation of a sponsorship deal with Coca-Cola not being renewed final yr with lurid allegations about his non-public life.

And United group-mate Rio Ferdinand has also rallied to Rooney's cause, insisting it's now time to call off the "lynching" of his friend.

"We should follow him as a footballer relatively than maintain lynching him for a lot of the stuff that goes on," he said.

"I wouldn't say he is harmless in quite a lot of the stuff that has happened however generally due to the player he is and who he's the response could be over the top.

"Wayne Rooney swearing on TV, as a lot as I don't condone it, shouldn't be front web page news.

"There are bigger issues happening in the world. There are issues occurring in Libya and Ivory Coast and we're talking about Wayne Rooney on the entrance page of newspapers because he swore at a camera.

"I don't condone it but as a result of it's him everyone goes over the top.

"I do not really feel sorry for him. He thrives off the attention.

"But he thrives off football consideration fairly than the stuff on the outside.

"He loves taking part in football. That's what he needs to be judged on and talked about."
