EURO 2024: UEFA ‘MAKE DECISION’ ON BANNING BELLINGHAM, RICE AHEAD OF SWITZERLAND CLASH
UEFA have decided not to ban the England duo of Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice following their dramatic 2-1 win over Slovakia at Euro 2024 on Sunday.
The governing body have reviewed the report from match officials and have instead opened disciplinary proceedings against the Three Lions for the lighting of fireworks and crowd disturbances.
Bellingham, who scored for 1-1, appeared to have made a lewd gesture towards the Slovakia bench.
Rice was also embroiled in a spat with opposition boss, Francesco Calzona.
But they have both been let off the hook.
