LONDON — UEFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against both Serbia and England after alleged racist chanting and brawls at their under-21 match.
The Serbian hosts were charged with misconduct over the racial abuse its fans allegedly hurled at England players from before kick-off on Tuesday night.
But both federations face action for "improper conduct" over the scuffles that broke out on the pitch between the teams after the match, which England won 1-0 to secure qualification for the 2013 European Under-21 Championship.
