    Bulgaria away tonight,this should be a laugh.

    If we win and Kosovo draw or lose (unlikely) then we qualify.

    Most likely a hostile reception sadly for some of the players?

    Game stopped twice due to racist chanting and Nazi salutes .
    One more time and the game is abandoned according to UEFAs 3 stage protocol.
    A lot of Bulgars in hoodies have been evicted.

    I’ve never heard this abuse or seen it like this ,and Bulgaria already only have half a ground available as a punishment for racist abuse before.
    Even Bulgaria’s captain has gone up to the cages separating the ground to talk to fans at half time.

    England are 4-0 up btw with just under 40 mins to go.

    Still very much an issue in 2019… Horrible.

    Do hope the England fans wait a while before leaving the stadium, in case those Bulgars in hoodies are still around.

    They will be fine Torg but Bulgaria need to be punished again properly.
    ITV sound microphones picked up all the abuse and they just played it : fucking disgusting.

    Hope so!
    Only watched the game while doing other things, so I didn't pick up on what was shouted towards the players. There will no doubt be clips on social media though.

    Sadly there seems to be a deep culture for that in Bulgaria...

    So England are being charged for booing the Bulgarian national anthem. This happens in most internationals. Another UEFA farce!

    1-1 in the end. Norway now needs to qualify via the Nations League playoff.
