Sparta Prague defender David Hancko has said there were "no racist undertones" to the targeting of Rangers' midfielder Glen Kamara in their Europa League clash last week.

And Hancko claims the cacophony of boos from the 10,000 crowd of children that greeted the Finnish midfielder's every touch wasn't even included in the UEFA's match delegate's report.

UEFA revealed earlier this week they will look into events within the stadium during the 1-0 victory to Sparta where Hancko nodded the winner.

The Czech club have totally refuted any notion the kids' actions were racist and Slovakian international Hancko agrees.

He said: "There were no racist undertones at the game.

"The club also told us that the delegate did not write anything about it in his report of the match after the game too.

"It came to our notice that Kamara was whistled after he got a red card, but any player from Rangers would have been whistled if they had got sent off too.

"I'm strongly against racism, but I think it's been unnecessarily blown up on their part.

"Many people have written about it in Britain without actually watching the match. I personally didn't notice anything during the game.

"I suppose for a short moment of time fans of Sparta and Slavia were connected because of this incident. But as soon as we played them on Sunday in the derby, the fans split up again to the way it always was."
