Serbia has issued a stark ultimatum to UEFA, threatening to withdraw from Euro 2024 unless Albania and Croatia face sanctions for alleged anti-Serb chants by their fans during a recent match. The Football Association of Serbia (FSS) reported offensive chants of "Kill, kill, kill the Serb" during the Group B encounter between Croatia and Albania, prompting strong condemnation.
FSS General Secretary Jovan Surbatovic expressed outrage, stating to Serbian state broadcaster RTS that UEFA must take action or risk Serbia's withdrawal from the tournament. Surbatovic highlighted UEFA's previous response to their appeals, suggesting confidence in forthcoming sanctions.
