EUROPEAN soccer chief Michel Platini failed on Friday in his bid to have a 90-day provisional suspension from world football lifted, further denting his hopes of running for the presidency of the game's scandal-hit global governing body Fifa.
The decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the top body for settling sports-related disputes, means that Mr Platini will not be able to attend Saturday's draw for the Euro 2016 championships.
