HNS Secretary-General Zorislav Srebric told Hina Thursday that
regulations about performances for a club or a national team
prohibit all forms of discrimination based on national, religious
or racial background.
The HNS does not expect the Union of European Football Associations
(UEFA) to react to this incident, because this was not an
international tournament, Srebric said.
