UEFA aware of racist taunts at Dutch training

UEFA confirms that there were isolated racist taunts at the Netherlands' training camp this week.

UEFA have confirmed that there were 'isolated incidents of racist chanting' at the Netherlands' Euro 2012 training camp earlier this week.

Several Dutch players, including captain Mark van Bommel and Ibrahim Afellay, had been quoted expressing their anger towards the taunts in Krakow, and UEFA have since confirmed what happened.

A UEFA statement read: "We have now been made aware that there were some isolated incidents of racist chanting."

UEFA were also quick to announce that action will be taken if the abuse towards Netherlands, or any other team competing at Euro 2012, is repeated.
