The Serbian football association has been charged by UEFA after objects were allegedly thrown at England’s Euro 2024 group stage match against Serbia.
Eight people were temporarily detained following a brawl between Serbia and England fans in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, ahead of Sunday’s game, police said.
The charges also include “transmitting a provocative message unfit for a sports event”.
European’s football’s governing body says its control, ethics and disciplinary body (CEDB) will decide on the matter in due course.
Also, an UEFA ethics and disciplinary inspector will conduct a disciplinary investigation regarding alleged discriminatory behaviour.
England won the match 1-0.
