Morata and Rodri face two-match ban after UEFA complaint.

Spain's Alvaro Morata and Rodri are facing two-game suspensions after being punished by UEFA for chanting about Gibraltar.

The players sang the songs at the team's post-Euro 2024 celebrations.

Rodri and Morata were heard chanting "Gibraltar is Spanish" during the La Roja celebrations.

The Gibraltar Football Association filed a protest about "the extremely provocative and insulting nature of the celebrations."

An ethical and disciplinary inspector was then assigned to investigate the event, and disciplinary actions have now begun.

According to a UEFA statement, a decision "is expected in due course."
