[Saba Sports News] According to Spanish media reports, UEFA will investigate Rodri and Alvaro Morata for possible violations of regulations during the championship parade. If UEFA decides to punish these two players, they may face a two-match ban. The report states that UEFA’s ethics and disciplinary inspector will assess whether Rodri and Morata breached UEFA’s disciplinary regulations. The incident occurred during the public display of the Euro 2024 trophy in Madrid on July 15, 2024. Previously, Spain defeated England 2-1 to win the 2024 European Cup. During the celebration, Rodri took the microphone and sang, “Gibraltar is Spanish~Gibraltar is Spanish.” Subsequently, the Gibraltar Football Association complained to UEFA about the matter. It is worth noting that Gibraltar is bordered to the north by the Spanish province of Cadiz, Andalusia, but it has been a British territory since 1713. Players now need to be mindful of their words and actions.
