On Monday in the European Championship qualifying match, the England national team demolished Montenegro's football players 5:1 in an away game, but after the match, most attention was focused on issues not entirely related to football.
England's national team coach Gareth Southgate stated that Montenegro's fans insulted his team's players with racist remarks. UEFA immediately launched an investigation.
Truth be told, England's national team defender Jordan Henderson also faced criticism after the match. Montenegro's national team defender Stefan Savic accused the "Liverpool" team captain of disrespect towards opponents.
"We understand that they are a much better team than us, but sometimes I feel sad that I have to compete in the same sport jersey as certain players.
For example, Jordan Henderson sarcastically told one of our players in the tunnel after the game that he would give him his jersey. It's just shameful and disrespectful. I told him that a player of his level should not behave like that.
We are proud of our team. I would rather play with this team and concede five goals than be on the same side as arrogant Englishmen," S. Savic told journalists.
