The Gibraltar Football Association: The Gibraltar Football Association has announced that they have lodged a complaint against the Spanish Men’s national team after the 2024 Euro winners were seen singing chants of ‘extremely provocative and insulting nature.’

“The Gibraltar FA has noted the extremely provocative and insulting nature of the celebrations around the Spanish Men's national team winning Euro 2024. The Association is this morning taking advice on the filing of a complaint to European Football's governing body, UEFA, in relation to the unacceptable chanting and songs, relating to Gibraltar, sung by Spain's Men's National Team players after winning Euro 2024. Football has no place for behaviour of this nature,” read the statement posted by Gibraltar FA on their website.

The incident occurred when a video of the UEFA Euro player of the tournament, Rodri started doing the rounds on social media. The Manchester City midfielder was leading chants with the crowds in Madrid while singing ‘Gibraltar is Spanish.’
