Gareth Southgate says racist chanting by Montenegro supporters marred win in Euro 2020 qualifier
26 March 2019 - 18:47London — Gareth Southgate has called for education to stamp out racism in football as European governing body Uefa opened disciplinary proceedings against Montenegro following abuse aimed at black England players during his side’s 5-1 Euro 2020 qualifier win in Podgorica on Monday.
“My kids don’t think for one minute about where people are born, what language they speak, what colour they are. There’s an innocence about young people that is only influenced by older people. So we have to make sure that the education is right for everybody. Southgate said the racist chanting had marred the win, which leaves England in charge of Group A following two big wins.
Uefa said on Tuesday that disciplinary proceedings had been opened and charges made against Montenegro including racist behaviour and crowd disturbances.Sterling tweeted a picture of his goal celebration, saying: “Best way to silence the haters .”
