    Racism has once again marred a football game in Europe

    Racism has once again marred a football game in Europe


    The FA Cup fourth qualifying round tie between non-league sides Haringey Borough and Yeovil Town was abandoned.

    London side Haringey left the field in the 64th minute after claims their Cameroonian goalkeeper Valery Pajetat had been the target of racial abuse by visiting fans.

    Haringey manager Tom Loizou says the abuse was disgusting, but added Yeovil's players tried to calm their supporters down.
