UEFA has started disciplinary actions against Spanish players Alvaro Morata (31) and Rodri (28) due to their conduct during a EURO 2024 presentation in Madrid, European football's governing body announced on Tuesday.

On July 15th, following their 2-1 victory over England in Berlin to secure the European Championship, the players chanted "Gibraltar is Spanish" during a public celebration in Madrid.

Gibraltar is a British territory located at Spain's southern tip.

The Gibraltar Football Association filed a formal complaint to UEFA about the chant, leading UEFA to appoint an ethics and disciplinary inspector to determine if it breached regulations.

The charges against Rodri and Morata include violating basic rules of decent conduct, general principles of conduct, using sporting events for non-sporting manifestations, and bringing the sport of football into disrepute.
