A video recorded after the World Cup match between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Qatar has drawn significant attention on social media. While the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team celebrated a 3:1 victory and qualification for the round of 16 (where they will face the United States), public attention focused on an incident in the stands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to initial information reported by the \u201cCrna Hronika BiH\u201d profile, the incident began when a man in the stands started waving the flag of Serbia. As stated, this angered the most passionate Bosnia and Herzegovina supporters, who, after a verbal conflict, decided to take the flag from him. However, a completely different version of the story soon came to light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Turnaround and a different version of the story<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The portal \u201cSlobodna Bosna\u201d denied these claims, stating that allegations of provocation were incorrect and that members of the supporter group \u201cBH Fanaticos\u201d actually reacted in a highly responsible manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are quoting their explanation of the situation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n -A careless supporter wearing a Bosnia and Herzegovina jersey previously took the Serbian flag from a girl who had come to watch the match. Contrary to media interpretations, the presence of the Serbian flag at this match did not represent any provocation, but rather a common occurrence at the World Cup. In the same section, there were supporters with the insignia of Croatia, North Macedonia, as well as various global clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This refutes malicious comments on social media which stated: \u201cThey took away the Serbian flag, while the Croatian flag does not bother them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nREAD MORE: <\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
