Rhian Brewster celebrates winning the golden boot for the highest scorer after England's win over Spain in the final FIFA U-17 World Cup
FIFA is investigating Rhian Brewster's claim that England team-mate Morgan Gibbs-White was racially abused during the Under-17 World Cup final against Spain.
Liverpool teenager Brewster made the allegation in a powerful interview with the Guardian last week.
The 17-year-old Londoner told the newspaper he has either personally experienced racial abuse or witnessed it on a football pitch seven times, including five occasions in the last seven months.

Two of those alleged incidents - all against overseas opposition - took place on England duty, with the most recent being the abuse directed at Gibbs-White in October's 5-2 victory over Spain in Kolkata.
A FIFA spokesperson said it has recently received a complaint from the Football Association and "is now analysing and gathering evidence".
According to Brewster's Guardian interview, Gibbs-White was called "a monkey" by a Spanish player after an incident in Spain's penalty box.
"It was a goal-kick and I was getting into position," Brewster told the newspaper. "'Morgan,' I said, 'did you hear that?' He said: 'Yeah, yeah, I thought I was the only one'."
Later in the game, Brewster got involved in an argument with a Spanish player who felt England were not winning "respectfully".
"I said: 'How can you tell us to win respectfully when one of your players has been racist? What about your team-mate being respectful to us?"'
The FA is understood to have flagged up the incident at the time and followed that up with additional evidence in November.

MANCHESTER UNITED'S ROMELU LUKAKU HAS 'NO PROBLEM' AFTER BLOW TO HEAD AND COULD FACE DERBY COUNTY

Lukaku is no different than Ibrahimovic. However Zlatan gave you more skill and regular goals. For me Ferguson if he had players like rashford and Martial in his team. Both with pace, skill and ability to score. He would start them everytime over lukaku. Rashford, Martial and lingard. Lukaku on the bench. Right now he’s been played as mourinho is afraid to look foolish for spending 75 million on player he really didn’t need. Utd need pace and imagination. However, worryingly Jose doesn’t see rashford or Martial as number 9 strikers. From an English point of view. If I was rashford I would ask to leave next summer and join a club who will sign up to him playing regularly in his favourite position. Just look at lingard he’s only now thriving as Jose finally gave him a shot at playing as a regular but that was only because mikhitaryan flopped. I think mourinho’s got to be bold here and drop lukaku. Give these much more talented guys a run of games. Rashford needs to be trained as a number 9 making the right runs, not as winger who needs to learn how to cross.

I totally agree. If players tapping up coutinho must face the music and and fined and banned. Paulinho did just that last week. He should be banned by fifa. This will discourage other players from doing the same.

It was a mistake for Luiz to go back to a low class disgusting club like Chelsea.They have no respect for there coaches and players.We have had Fergie as our manager for over 20 years and we are holding on to Mourinho even though we are going through a rough patch.
