UEFA Disciplinary Action Against Rodri and Morata
Spain's victory over England in the 2024 European Championship final was followed by controversy during their homecoming celebrations. During the festivities, Rodri took the microphone and chanted, "Gibraltar is Spain! Gibraltar is Spain!" This prompted a complaint from the Gibraltar Football Association to UEFA. Gibraltar, located north of Spain's Andalusian province of Cádiz, has been a British territory since 1713.
UEFA has since announced disciplinary proceedings against Spanish players Rodri and Morata for their inappropriate behavior during the victory parade. The actions were deemed to have violated four UEFA regulations. According to reports from 'Marca,' the players could face a two-match suspension. What are your thoughts on the recent string of sensitive incidents in the football world?
