The Football Association has questioned whether they will play matches in Serbia again following the alleged racist abuse of the England Under-21 side.

FA general secretary Alex Horne also urged UEFA to take the strongest action against the Serbian FA. UEFA on Wednesday night announced charges against both the Serbian FA and the English for improper conduct of their players, and against the Serbs for "alleged racist chanting" by fans.

Danny Rose, the Tottenham defender on loan at Sunderland, was the target of racist chanting during the match, clearly audible on TV coverage of the game, but the Serbian FA issued a statement "absolutely" denying there was any racism at all and branding the England player's behaviour "vulgar".
