In football, controversy has erupted in the Champions League after Uefa rejected Benfica's appeal against the suspension of Gianluca Prestianni. The Argentine winger was handed a provisional one-match ban after Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr reported alleged racist abuse during last week's 1-0 defeat in a knockout round play-off first leg. Benfica had appealed the decision, but Uefa has upheld the ban, which means Prestianni will miss the second leg of the tie against Real Madrid.
