(Reuters) - UEFA found no evidence to corroborate Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster's racism allegations against a Spartak Moscow player, European soccer's governing body said on Wednesday after completing an investigation.

Brewster, 17, alleged that he was racially abused by defender Leonid Mironov during Liverpool's 2-0 UEFA Youth League win against the Russian side in December and UEFA appointed an Ethics and Disciplinary Inspector to conduct an independent probe.
