Adriano may pay the price for dissing football

Shakhtar Donetsk forward Luiz Adriano has been charged by UEFA with disrespecting opponents Nordsjaelland by scoring after a dropped ball. UEFA said it has opened a disciplinary case against Adriano for "violation of the principles of conduct" in the game on Tuesday night in Denmark.

¶   The case will be judged next Tuesday. Luiz Adriano infuriated Nordsjaelland players and fans by racing to collect teammate Willian's kick downfield intended for the home goalkeeper.
¶   The Brazilian forward ignored watching defenders, dribbled around the `keeper and shot into an empty net.
