what are the odds that Platini and his idiots come down much harder on Boateng than they do on that little sorry excuse of a club after what happened today?

Friendlies are not counted as professional games, which is why players without work permits and trialists can play in friendlies in UK.
Unless there is a complaint UEFA nor the IFA will have anything to do with a friendly.

well let's assume that Milan do indeed file a complaint to UEFA against what's-their-name .... getting back to my original question , could UEFA really hand out a heavier punishment on Boateng than that club?

Why would UEFA hand out any punishment to Boateng. What do they care if a friendly isn't finished.
It won't be the first time a friendly has been stopped early. I remember one game where a manager thought the opposition were too rough and in danger of injuring his team that he called an end to the game.

Oh, I have just caught on. This is in reference to the under 21 game, wherein various England players and coaching staff got involved in throwing punches at opposition players and staff following racist abuse, and 2 were subsequently banned for a couple of matches extremely justifiably.

I made my point. UEFA and IFA will not do anything to Boateng.

What it will take is a major incident of this ilk to happen in a big CL game. UEFA will only take action if their flagship competition is harmed in any way
