    Swansea City’s 1-0 Championship victory at Millwall was interrupted for approximately seven minutes following allegations of racist abuse directed at South Korean winger Ji-sung Eom. The incident prompted the match officials to activate discrimination protocols and triggered a police investigation.

    Eom was warming up near the touchline when the alleged incident occurred. Referee Edward Duckworth paused play while stadium announcements warned against discriminatory behaviour. Millwall confirmed cooperation with police and CCTV inquiries. Ronald later scored the winning goal, keeping Swansea two points clear at the top.

    Bayern Munich surrendered a 3-2 lead to draw 3-3 against Norwegian side Viking in the Champions League after Michael Olise received two yellow cards within seconds. His dismissal helped Viking secure a dramatic late equaliser and denied Bayern a comeback victory.

    Bayern recovered from a two-goal deficit through two Harry Kane goals and a Luis Diaz strike. Olise received a second booking for throwing the ball towards Viking captain Zlatko Tripic immediately after an earlier caution. Herman Haugen headed home a 90th-minute equaliser, while Olise faces a one-match suspension.

    Bournemouth are reportedly prepared to consider selling England midfielder Alex Scott in January if an offer worth approximately £100 million arrives. The development represents a shift from the club’s previous refusal to entertain approaches for the 23-year-old.

    BBC Sport reports that Bournemouth’s decision would also depend on their league position and survival concerns. Scott has rejected two contract offers, while Chelsea and Liverpool retain interest. The midfielder is currently recovering from a thigh injury and remains contracted to Bournemouth until 2028. No transfer agreement has been announced.

    English football regulator chairman David Kogan says he would resign if politicians attempted to interfere with the watchdog’s handling of Manchester City’s financial-rules case. His remarks follow concerns about possible political influence after Prime Minister Andy Burnham commented on the club’s ownership.

    Kogan insisted the regulator would independently assess the evidence and apply its statutory powers after the ongoing appeal and disciplinary process. Those powers concern the suitability of owners, directors and senior executives. He stated that no politician had attempted to influence the regulator and declined to prejudge possible action against City.

    A major financial report from England’s Independent Football Regulator reveals that 94% of clubs across the top five leagues are loss-making. The watchdog warns that dependence on wealthy owners, mounting debts and limited cash reserves threaten the long-term survival of numerous clubs.

    The State of the Game report found that 66% of clubs could not survive beyond 90 days without new owner funding, while 29% had less than 30 days of financial resilience. The regulator called for stronger controls and warned it could intervene in stalled funding negotiations between leagues.
