Real Madrid's plea for UEFA to open new investigations into Barcelona players' Champions League behaviour was rejected on Monday.

UEFA rejected fresh protests by both clubs, and said no new charges would be levelled following a bad-tempered semifinals, first-leg match last Wednesday, which Barcelona won 2-0.

Instead, UEFA's disciplinary committee will on Friday examine six charges against the two clubs — five for Madrid, one for Barcelona — including two for Madrid coach Jose Mourinho.

Mourinho made offensive comments to match officials and said UEFA actively helped Barcelona reach Champions League finals.

Madrid reacted by asking UEFA to sanction Daniel Alves, Pedro Rodriguez and Sergio Busquets for feigning injuries.

It also wanted UEFA to look again at a red card shown to Pepe for his tackle on Alves when the match was scoreless after an hour.

"In the case of the behaviour of the Barcelona players, it was deemed that there was no common strategy to provoke the Real Madrid players, while in the case of Pepe, the referee's factual decision is upheld," UEFA said in a statement.

"As a result, the player Pepe is suspended for the Barcelona-Real Madrid match on [Tuesday]."

Touchline ban

Mourinho also will serve a touchline ban at the Camp Nou after being sent from the dugout last Wednesday.

Madrid assistant coach Aitor Karanka said UEFA's decision to reject the club's claims — which included an accusation that Busquets spouted a racist slur at Brazilian defender Marcelo — would lead to more ugly scenes on Tuesday.

"Everyone's seen the images of what's happened at the Bernabeu," Karanka said. "Tomorrow you'll see players on the field that don't respect the rules, spewing racist phrases and not respecting football's values."

Karanka also hit out at UEFA's decision to ban Mourinho and several Madrid players earlier in the season for deliberately earning yellow cards to wipe their playing slate clean.

"UEFA didn't come through with a ruling on something that is in its statutes when just a few months ago it sanctioned Madrid for things that are not in the regulations," Karanka said.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola said the club would take action against Busquets if racist remarks were spoken.

"We are going to take some decisions about that," Guardiolasaid. "We are not proud when our players make those kind of wrong actions. But I know these kinds of players and they are honest."

Barcelona's additional complaint regarding Mourinho's post-match rant also was rejected by a single member of UEFA's disciplinary committee.

"Barcelona have been referred to the proceedings already brought against Jose Mourinho," the statement said.

On Friday, UEFA will consider charges against Mourinho plus Pepe for his sending off, and Madrid for its fans throwing missiles and invading the pitch.

Barcelona faces a single charge, for its unused substitute goalkeeper Jose Pinto receiving a red card for his part in a touchline brawl at halftime.
