FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against the Spanish football federation due to anti-Muslim chants heard during a friendly match between Spain and Egypt. Fans at the RCDE stadium in Barcelona chanted, 'Whoever doesn’t jump is a Muslim' on March 31. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez condemned the incident as 'unacceptable' and emphasized that an 'uncivil minority' should not represent the country.
