A French anti-racist group says it will file a lawsuit against Juventus supporters who chanted racist abuse about Inter Milan striker Mario Balotelli during a match at Bordeaux.
The International League against Racism and Anti-Semitism said in statement Friday that it wants French authorities to open an investigation and "seek the most severe sanctions against their perpetrators" after Juventus fans insulted Balotelli during Wednesday's 2-0 loss at Bordeaux in Champions League.
Balotelli, an Italian of Ghanaian descent, is regularly taunted during Serie A matches.
The LICRA asked UEFA for a "firm reaction."
