The politically-sensitive Euro 2016 qualifier between Serbia and Albania was abandoned yesterday following a brawl between players from both sides after a flag stunt, with Olsi Rama - the brother of Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama - reportedly accused of starting the trouble. The Group I game, with no away fans permitted, was interrupted when a flag depicting so-called Greater Albania, an area covering all parts of the Balkans where ethnic Albanians live, was flown over the terraces and pitch by what appeared to be a remote controlled mini drone near the end of the first half.
