Clever of the Benfica player to cover his mouth with his shirt before delivering the alleged racist abuse. Means there's no evidence once he denies it (which he has). If I was UEFA I'd hit him with a ban anyway and say to players that if you don't want to be punished for something you didn't say, don't cover your mouth.

Odd behaviour to cover you mouth when saying something. If it was harmless why hide it.

Racism will always exist until the authorities starting taking it more seriously and handing out severe punishments.

I found Clattenburgs comments odd at the time.
 
When you see Premier League players talk to each other at the end of the game they usually put their hands over their mouths to make sure no lip readers can say what they said .
