Evra exit

Football: Patrice Evra was fired by Marseille yesterday after being suspended by Uefa for all remaining European games this season for kicking a fan of the French club. The volatile defender was also fined 10,000 euros ($11,650) by Uefa. The 36-year-old Evra got into a verbal argument with Marseille supporters before a Europa League match against Portuguese club Vitoria on November 2. He then aimed a kick at the head of one of the fans. The Frenchman was sent off before the game.
