UEFA are waiting for the match officials' report before commenting on the racism row which followed Manchester City's match at CSKA Moscow.
Toure took to Twitter after the game to make his feelings known, with the City midfielder putting his faith in UEFA to take action.Thank you for your support! Hate or racism cannot affect me when so many people are showing me love and support on a daily basis!

Piara Powar, executive director of the FARE Network (Football Against Racism in Europe), believes UEFA has been moving in the right direction on such matters. He said: "UEFA have changed their rules and already this season sanctions are harder than ever before. "For a first offence you face a partial stadium closure; for a second offence your stadium will be closed for a match. "It's taken a long time to get here, but I think we are seeing some movement on the sanction side. "In terms of education, I don't know how long that's going to take, to educate fans like we've seen at CSKA."I believe in football institutions, I know decision makers will take their responsibilties and show A RED CARD TO RACISM
