UEFA says could disqualify England, Russia from Euro 2016 if more violence (Reuters)
European soccer's governing body warned the English and Russian football associations on Sunday that if fan violence continued their teams could be disqualified from the Euro 2016 tournament. "The UEFA Executive Committee has warned both football associations that - irrespective of any decisions taken by the independent disciplinary bodies relating to incidents inside the stadium - it will not hesitate to impose additional sanctions ...including the potential disqualification of their respective teams from the tournament, should such violence occur again," UEFA said in a statement. UEFA had earlier launched disciplinary proceedings against Russia in response to their fans storming their English counterparts in the stadium.
