A dark cloud hangs over Serbia’s Euro 2024 campaign after their opening match against England was marred by fan misconduct. Serbian supporters engaged in discriminatory chanting and threw objects onto the pitch, disrupting the flow of the game.

UEFA has since taken action, docking Serbia one point and opening a disciplinary investigation. This adds to the pressure on the Serbian team, who already find themselves trailing in Group C after a disappointing 1-1 draw against England.

The incident highlights the ongoing challenge of racism and discrimination in European football. UEFA’s swift action sends a strong message of zero tolerance for such behavior. Serbia must now address these issues within their fan base and focus on delivering positive results on the pitch.
