Manchester United avoid UEFA action over unsavoury chants

No further action will be taken against Manchester United following allegations of offensive chants being made in the meeting with Liverpool at Anfield.

Manchester United will face no further action from UEFA for chants made by supporters about the Hillsborough disaster during Thursday's defeat to Liverpool.

The first ever European meeting between the two sides was marred slightly by accusations of offensive chanting from a section of the Red Devils' travelling fans.

United officials were quick to condemn those allegedly involved, but the club will avoid punishment as the incident - referring to the day in which 96 Liverpool supporters were killed - was not included in the match officials' report.

A 2-0 victory for the Reds leaves them as strong favourites to progress into the last eight of the Europa League, with the two teams due to face off in the return leg on Thursday night.
