LONDON (AP) - Teams at the World Cup will be subject to FIFA's new anti-racism rules, which include a possible three-point penalty in the standings for misbehavior by fans.
FIFA's new rules took effect April 4 and will govern domestic competitions starting next season.
"The regulations will also be applied for this World Cup," FIFA president Sepp Blatter told Sky TV in an interview aired Tuesday. "At the first sign (of racism) there will be a deduction of three points, then we are finished with the problems of discrimination."
