After a disappointing draw against Slovenia, some England fans couldn’t contain their frustration.
As manager Gareth Southgate applauded the crowd at the final whistle, a few unruly spectators decided to toss beer cups in his direction.
UEFA’s Likely Reaction
This behavior isn’t expected to go unnoticed.
UEFA is likely to impose fines on the Football Association for the incident.
Similar situations in the past have resulted in significant penalties for other teams.
Albania, for example, was fined over 12,000 euros for object-throwing in a game against Italy, and Scotland faced a 5,000 euro fine after a similar incident during their loss to Germany.
Fans’ Outburst
Footage from the game shows a handful of fans booing and throwing empty cups at Southgate as he made his way around the pitch to thank the supporters.
Despite the majority of the crowd showing their appreciation, the actions of a few disrupted the atmosphere.
Some fans even resorted to obscene gestures and shouting as the manager tried to acknowledge their support.
Another Disappointing Night
The match itself was a letdown for England, who struggled to show their best against a team ranked 57th in the world.
While substitutes Cole Palmer and Anthony Gordon brought some energy and directness to the game, overall, it was a lackluster performance.
Looking Ahead
Despite the frustration and the lackluster play, England managed to top their group.
Now, they await the draw to see who they will face in the last 16.
The hope is that the team can turn things around and live up to their potential in the upcoming matches.
