UEFA finds no evidence to support Rhian Brewster's racism allegations during Liverpool's Youth League clash with Spartak Moscow

UEFA's investigation into Liverpool youngster Rhian Brewster's racism allegations against a Spartak Moscow player has failed to find any evidence to corroborate the claim.

European football's control, ethics and disciplinary body acknowledged the allegation was made in good faith by the 17-year-old but, after a number of extensive interviews of players and match officials, it came down to Brewster's word against Spartak captain Leonid Mironov.

Mironov admitted swearing at the England Under-17 World Cup winner during the Russian club's 2-0 defeat in the UEFA Youth League match at Prenton Park in December but denied using racist language.
