English soccer authorities vetoed Madrid as a venue for a proposed exhibition game against Spain because of the racist abuse the team faced the last time it played in the city. The Spanish federation was fined more than $75,000 when Shaun Wright-Phillips, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Jermain Defoe and Jermaine Jenas were subjected to racial taunts at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in November 2004.
