BELGRADE, Serbia — Serbia soccer officials have threatened to quit the European Championship after offensive chants during the Albania-Croatia match. The game on Wednesday ended 2-2 in Hamburg. Serbia played its second group match against Slovenia on Thursday afternoon in Munich. The match ended 1-1. Serbia FA general secretary Jovan Surbatovic said what happened on Wednesday is "scandalous" and it will ask UEFA for sanctions, "even at the cost of not continuing the competition." Serbia would lose tournament prize money of at least $9.9 million if it leaves Euro 2024.
