The scuffle broke out after an English team member allegedly behaved in a vulgar manner towards Serbian fans. The player Danny Rose was red-carded after the game for kicking the ball into the crowd.
However, an audio from an amateur video footage could be heard Serbian fans “chant” like monkeys after the winning goal was scored by the English.
