BUDAPEST: Hungary on Saturday claimed that UEFA is a “pathetic and cowardly body” after the country’s football federation was sanctioned for the “discriminatory behaviour” of the team’s fans during Euro 2020.
European football’s governing body ordered Hungary to play their next three games behind closed doors and fined the federation 100,000 euros ($119,000).
UEFA investigated racist monkey chants and homophobic banners during Hungary’s matches in Budapest and Munich at Euro 2020, from which they were eliminated in the group stage.
“It seems that UEFA continues to employ snitches, who have nothing else to do, just to write reports of what was said (or wasn’t said) in the audience,” Hungarian foreign minister Peter Szijjarto said on Facebook.
