PHOTO:Croatia charged by Uefa over crowd trouble during their Euro 2016 match against Czech Republic

A barrage of flares rained down from
the stands during the 86th minute of the thrilling Group D encounter. All
players escaped unscathed, as did the fortunate steward who came
close to being seriously injured when one of the projectiles exploded in
his face.
After the disappointing result for
Croatia, who let a two-goal lead slip, manager Ante Cacic condemned those
involved in the disturbance as ‘sports terrorists’ in his post-match interview.
‘They are not really Croatia
supporters. These people are scary and I call them hooligans,’ said Cacic.
‘The 95% of Croatian supporters are
ashamed in front of Europe.
‘These are sports terrorists. This
is maybe just a question about six to 10 individuals. I hope they can be
identified and punished. I hope the Croatia FA is doing everything to prevent
this, but it is impossible to avoid.’
