Serbs were hurt by the celebration of the goals scored by Granita Jaka and Jerdan Shakiri, which secured Switzerland a victory over the rival.

In the second round match in Group E, Switzerland won a strong-willed victory over Serbia. Granite Jaka and Dzherdan Shakiri scored the ball for the Swiss - ethnic Albanians and natives of Kosovo. At the same time, they both celebrated their goals with a demonstration of a famous gesture - "Albanian eagle", which offended the Serbs, who decided to complain to FIFA.

"In addition to the fact that a clean penalty was not assigned to Switzerland, we would like to draw the attention of FIFA to the provocative actions of the opponent's players," quotes the general secretary of the Serbian Football Association, Jovan Shurbatovich, The Telegraph. - It is about the gestures of Shakiri and Jaka during the celebration of the heads and the image of the flag of Kosovo on the Shakiri boot ".

Since Kosovo and Albania are members of FIFA and their symbolism is not forbidden during official matches, only for the emblem of Kosovo and the "Albanian eagle" Jaku and Shakiri can not be punished, however, Article 54 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code threatens with a two-legged disqualification for "provocation of spectators and participants competitions ".

Both players were asked about a contradictory reaction to their gestures, to which Shakiri diplomatically justified himself "with emotions that he could not contain," and Jaka responded more harshly:

they say he is not interested in the feelings and emotions of rivals.

The Shakiri and Jaki families were forced to leave Kosovo during the Balkan war, while Father Granit had to stay in a Serbian prison for calls for Kosovo's independence. By the way, Granit's own brother - Taulan - stands for the national team of Albania.
