UEFA to rule after coaches are sent off

VIENNA: Euro 2008 organizers will examine a referee's report on Tuesday before deciding on any disciplinary action against the Germany and Austria coaches who were both "sent off" during their Group B match, UEFA said.

In an extraordinary episode just before halftime in Germany's 1-0 win in Vienna on Monday, Spanish referee Manuel Mejuto banished Joachim Loew of Germany and his Austrian opposite number Josef Hickersberger to the stands.

The double dismissal, which Loew said was due to a dispute with the fourth official, was greeted by jeers from both sets of fans in the capacity 50,000 crowd at Ernst Happel stadium.
