Denmark forward Nicklas Bendtner has been charged with improper conduct by UEFA for a goal celebration in his team's 3-2 defeat against Portugal.

UEFA has said that Bendtner is in violation of a law regarding a player's uniform and equipment after he lifted his shirt and slightly pulled down his shorts to reveal the name of a betting firm after scoring the equalizing goal in the second half.

Tournament rules for Euro 2012 bar any sponsor advertising on a player's uniform.

UEFA has said that its disciplinary panel will review the case on Monday.
