The Euro 2024 qualifier between Romania and Kosovo was suspended for slightly below an hour on Tuesday after Romanian followers repeatedly shouted provocative chants.
The sport in Bucharest was stopped within the 18th minute after a number of the crowd chanted “Serbia Serbia” and a participant confronted individuals within the stands displaying an indication saying “Kosovo is Serbia”, with the referee sending the gamers again to the altering rooms.

“The match has resumed after play was suspended as a result of discriminatory behaviour from some supporters,” UEFA mentioned on their web site after an interruption of fifty minutes.
Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008 and gained recognition from greater than 100 international locations, however not from Serbia.
Kosovo and Romania are in European qualifying Group I, which is headed by Switzerland with 14 factors.
