THE FAI ARE set to review video evidence before deciding whether to seek an investigation from Uefa into the alleged racism against Adam Idah in Sunday night’s Nations League game against Israel.
There appeared to be offensive noises during the game in Debrecen directed at Ireland striker Idah.
Ireland player Jayson Molumby asked the officials to “listen” and pointed to his ears. Referee Harm Osmers and fourth official Florian Exner determined there was no racism.
As Molumby did not say “racism,” he said “listen,” the Uefa delegate informed the FAI that no action can be taken as it was not reported on the pitch, and officials did not hear it anyway.
