UEFA has provisionally suspended Benfica midfielder Gianluca Prestianni for the second leg of the Champions League playoff against Real Madrid following allegations of discriminatory behavior toward Vinicius Junior. The decision comes after an incident that interrupted the first leg in Lisbon, where Real Madrid won 1-0. Benfica plans to appeal the ruling as investigations continue.
Jordanian tennis player Abdullah Shelbayh halted his first-round match at the Madrid Challenger after facing racial insults and threats from spectators. Officials called police, who detained one individual and removed the group. Shelbayh lost the match but handled the situation with composure.
