Bulgaria head coach resigns amid racism row
Bulgaria head coach Krasimir Balakov has resigned amid the fallout of the racist abuse suffered by England’s players during their Euro 2020 qualifier match on Monday night.
England’s 6-0 European Qualifier win in Sofia was overshadowed by racist chanting and Nazi salutes, with the game stopped twice during the first half as players considered walking off the pitch in protest of the abuse.
In an interview with Sky Sports News after the game, Balakov said he did not hear monkey chants from the stands, and would only apologise to England’s players if UEFA proved that there had been discriminatory abuse.
