Morata & Rodri banned for 'Gibraltar is Spanish' chant


Spain captain, ALVARO MORATA and team-mate, RODRIGO HERNÁNDEZ have been banned for one game by UEFA after they chanted "Gibraltar is Spanish" during their side's Euro 2024 victory celebrations.

 

The Gibraltar Football Association made an official complaint about the celebrations to European football's governing body before the two were charged.

 

UEFA has now suspended MORATA and RODRI for failing to comply with the general principles of conduct, for violating the basic rules of decent conduct, for using sporting events for manifestations of a non-sporting nature and for bringing the sport of football, and UEFA in particular, into disrepute.

 

They are banned for Spain's next game, which is against Serbia on Thursday, 5 September.
