Uefa Cup hooligans to be sentenced

Twelve Glasgow Rangers hooligans involved in rioting after the Uefa Cup Final in Manchester are due to be sentenced.

They were arrested in the hours of violence during and after the Scottish club's defeat at the City of Manchester Stadium in May 2008.

An estimated 100,000 fans descended on the city to see the match, which Zenit St Petersburg won 2-0.
