Football Notes: José Mourinho Charged Over Improper Language

ManU Manager José Mourinho was charged over "comments he made in Portuguese" to a TV camera after his side's win over Newcastle United. It is claimed Mourinho used "abusive, insulting or improper language" after the 3-2 comeback victory at Old Trafford on Oct. 6. The FA used a lip reader and the 55-year-old's remarks were "interpreted as offensive" (BBC, 10/16).

The European Parliament hosted a "high-level session" in Brussels on Tuesday "to tackle the growing problem of child trafficking in sport, primarily focusing on football." The event was co-hosted by MEP Bogdan Wenta, the European Parliament Intergroup on Sport and non-profit organization Mission 89 (INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL, 10/16).

FIFA's Technical Study Group published its 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia report, which includes comprehensive statistics on the tournament and each individual match, team profiles and exclusive video footage to support the analysis (FIFA).
