UEFA suspends Benfica's Prestianni after Vinicius racism claim
UEFA has provisionally suspended Benfica player Gianluca Prestianni for one match following Vinicius's allegation of racial abuse during their Champions League playoff first leg. The suspension stems from UEFA's Ethics and Disciplinary Commission investigation under Article 14 on discriminatory behavior. Prestianni will miss the return leg at Real Madrid this week as the probe continues regarding the Argentine winger's claims. Real Madrid won the first leg 1-0 thanks to Vinicius's goal.
