Englands Euro 2020 qualifier with Bulgaria in Sofia was stopped in the first half with supporters warned about behavior. The pause came in the 28th minute with England leading 2-0. A scene announcement then condemned the misuse before stating if it lasted, the match could be abandoned. Before restarting after talks between England director Gareth Southgate and the referee the match was discontinued at the minute. Even the Levski Stadium has been subject to a partial closure with this match after Bulgaria were sanctioned during qualifiers against also the Czech Republic and Kosovo for racist chanting. The build-up into the game was dominated by worries of incident of racism, with England striker Tammy Abraham stating the players will be ready to walk off the pitch when they had been targeted by racist abuse. Southgate held a meeting over the weekend to underline the Uefa three-step protocol in dealing with racist incidents - but the subject has provoked an angry response from the Bulgarian football authorities. Bulgaria trainer Krasimir Balakov had accused England of having a larger racism problem. Uefa has a protocol set up for dealing with events in matches. For the very first step, the referee will talk to the stadium announcer and demand the halting of racist behaviour. If it continues, the referee could take the players off the area into the rooms for a time period and the arena announcer will make another address. The match will be abandoned, if it continues.

BBC Sports chief football writer Phil McNulty:England defender Tyrone Mings seemed to peek over his shoulder and then appear towards the audience after making a pass within minutes the match was stopped.

England are accountable for this game but sadly off-the-field events will overshadow the game now. Read more: https://blackhillsyouthfootball.com/darts-tips/
