A ‘dangerous’ act against Aston Villa star could result in substantial FIFA fine

Serbian fans burn a NATO flag on October 14, 2014 during a Euro 2016 group I qualifying football match between Serbia and Albania in Belgrade. The match was abandoned after a drone carrying a pro-Albanian message was flown over the stadium, sparking violent scenes on and off the pitch. The match between the Balkan rivals was scoreless when it was stopped in the 41st minute after the drone trailing a "Greater Albania" flag flew over the Partizan Stadium in Belgrade and was brought down by a Serbia player. The incident triggered clashes between the two sets of players and a handful of the 20,000 Serbian spectators ran on to the pitch and tried to assault the Albanian team. .

England swept aside Serbia in their recent meeting with a 5-0, but not everybody took the hammering respectfully.

Harry Kane, Noni Madueke, Ezri Konsa, Marc Guehi and Marcus Rashford all got on the scoresheet in Belgrade, sealing the most complete performance of the Thomas Tuchel era so far.
