Man City skipper Kompany slams UEFA over reaction to Balotelli racist abuse

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is shocked by UEFA's priorities after Croatia's FA were fined £64,561 for racism.

Croatia's punishment for fans' abuse of City's Italy striker Mario Balotelli was more than £15,000 less than Nicklas Bendtner's £80,000 fine for revealing sponsored pants .

Kompany tweeted: "Uefa might need to review their order of priorities, don't you think?

"Surely if you were a sponsor, you would consider racism as a more dangerous association than the damage caused by commercial opportunism?"
