Sheffield United’s Sophie Jones has been found guilty of racist abuse.

The forward has been banned for five games following an incident involving Tottenham player Renee Hector.

Hector claimed she "received some monkey noises" from an opponent during a Championship match on 6 January.

Jones has had her contract terminated by Sheffield United, who said that the forward "maintains her innocence and is disappointed with the FA's decision".

She has also been fined £200 and must attend an educational course.
