Will UEFA respond to this incident?

Details: During yesterday's friendly between Spain and Egypt, held at RCDE Stadium, the "La Roja" supporters launched into an extremely provocative and reckless chant.

During the match, Spanish fans began chanting:

"If you don't jump, you're a Muslim."

Continuing to jump in place, they shouted this slogan at Egypt's players and supporters.

This behavior sparked a fierce backlash throughout the football community. Various organizations are already working to identify the main instigators of such conduct, which is considered unacceptable in modern society.

Ironically, such chants did not help Spain secure a victory over the Egyptians, who finished the match with a man down after a sending off, yet managed to hold the score at a goalless 0-0 draw.
