During the celebration of their victory at the 2024 European Championship, players of the Spanish national team became embroiled in a controversy.

Midfielder Rodri and forward Álvaro Morata were heard chanting "Gibraltar is Spain." This incident occurred in Madrid on July 15.

UEFA has launched an investigation into the matter and announced that an ethics and disciplinary inspector has been appointed for the case.

Additionally, players of the Argentine national team found themselves in a racist scandal during the celebration of their Copa América victory, prompting a reaction from Vice President Victoria Villarruel.

It should be noted that France has appealed to FIFA to address this issue. According to the French Football Federation, FIFA has now initiated an investigation into the situation.

Additionally, this situation has affected Chelsea. The club has begun an internal investigation as one of the participants, midfielder Enzo Fernández, is implicated in the scandal.
