Fan wants action taken against Copenhagen over ticket controversy

A Copenhagen supporter has called on the police to take action against the club following their decision to cancel Champions League tickets sold to fans with non-Danish sounding names.

The club have defended their decision by claiming that it will prevent away fans from mixing with home supporters during their group clashes against Juventus, Galatasaray and Real Madrid.

Kashif Asmad told TV2. "We believe it is a clear breach of racism legislation, of human rights and of the constitution."

Copenhagen drew 1-1 with Juventus in their first Group B match last night.
