The FA Cup qualifying match between Haringey Borough and Yeovil was abandoned on Saturday after Haringey players walked off the pitch due to alleged racist abuse.

Haringey's goalkeeper Valery Douglas Pajetat said afterwards that he was spat at and the victim of racial abuse.

The FA Cup tie was abandoned in the 64th minute with Yeovil 1-0 up, before the home side left the field of play.

Both sides returned to the pitch after the game had been abandoned to shake hands with each other and applaud the supporters.
